i’m not sure what the designs are for option 1 and 2 but tiles generally add character. the fastbo would be a pretty economical option. when you have the budget later on, you could always dress it up with vinyl decals

Kitchen backsplashes referring to the area between the table top /hob/ sink to the wall where we usually place with tiles? If yes I would to enquire, which is the economical and durable way to cover these areas:
1) Spanish ceramic tiles with a glazed finish ?
2) Tiles of (1*2) tiles cost appx RM9.50?
3) IKEA FASTBO Wall PAnel of $49 for L 90 *W50cm

I am running low on budget. So looking for alternative which is cost efficient and durable usage.

Thanks very much !

From my experience with concrete counter tops, most malaysian contractors don’t know how to do this properly. The workmanship for bare concrete isn’t up to par either. Neither do they know what sort of sealant to use. I did a lot of research and a lot of elbow grease to get mine executed properly.

Very useful tips and it definitely brain-stormed me with more ideas when designing my upcoming kitchen Btw, I prefer concrete counter-tops for my wet-kitchen and will go for solid surface for the bar table at dry kitchen
