Install new backsplash in kitchen - $12003. 

Kitchen: New flooring, new countertop, tile backsplash, added dishwasher.

A tile backsplash in the kitchen and stainless steel appliances help the look.

In the middle of this though I've already scheduled the final appraisal of the house because with the exception of the counter and backsplash going in into the kitchen my contractor assures me that everything will be completed by the end of June.

If you stain the cabinets, switch them out, retile the kitchen, add a backsplash, knock a wall down and put in an island to open things up.

@Nick G.The kitchen cost me about 10K for tile, granite, cabinets, hardware, appliances, backsplash and new lighting. 

Refinish the cabinets in the Kitchen and add Granite counter tops as well as add a new back splash.

Then the backsplash is chosen to compliment the countertop and tie in the cabinets and sometimes appliances.It is tough to go wrong with earth tones so keeping on that track and not going too dark and you will be fine.Most popular here is medium to dark stain cabinets, stainless appliances, and white quartz stone with stainless appliances.

It's the sum of floors, cabinets, countertops, plumbing, sink, fixtures, backsplashes, appliances, lighting and paint.  

Neither our contractor, nor my husband and I when we visited once a year, ever realized they had painted the walls gold, had installed a kitchen backsplash, had basically destroyed the carpeting (covered by a lot of heavy furniture), spray painted the patio, stained the kitchen cabinets, replaced a light fixture, and apparently never cleaned the kitchen, nearly ruining all the new appliances.
