A white backsplash is popular for a good reason. It makes your kitchen bright, airy, and spacious even if it is a small kitchen with a galley-style layout. Plus, when you are keeping it white, you can add color as much as you want to inject a dose of personality into your kitchen.
However, if you don’t want your walls to look bare, flat, and lack visual interest, you can choose a statement material like marble to add extra interest to the white base. White marble backsplashes, for example, have a wide array of patterns depending on where they are quarried from.

How to install a white marble backsplash in the kitchen?
The installation process of a white marble backsplash is similar to installing any other backsplash material. And the first step (like always) is to clean the application area and check if there are any bumps on the surface. If you find one, you can just sand the wall and remove the residual dust with a soft cloth or vacuum cleaner.
The next step is to figure out how to lay the tiles. But if you are getting a marble panel backsplash, it is much easier since you won’t have to deal with the tiles. If you wish, you can practice how to lay the tiles on cardboard and see how much you need to cut them. And if you need to cut tiles, you can use a tile saw, but make sure that the blade is new or not dull to give the tiles a clean cut.
When you are ready to install, apply mastic, adhesive, or thin-set to the wall with a V-notch trowel. However since mastic sets faster than the thin-set, it is better to spread it only to one section of the application area. Then start to lay the tiles.
After you are done with the installation, it is time to wait for 24-48 hours and come back on the next day to apply grout with a grout float. During the application, make sure that grout fills the joints. And don’t forget to remove the excess grout with a damp sponge and soft cloth before it dries on the tiles.
