Brian and Catherine Vailes love the home they share with their kids, Jackson, Luke and Meggie. But their kitchen is past due for an update.
So, we’ve been helping them plan a way to pull off a massive project in just two weeks, which we’ll cover in two episodes!
Some of the projects we cover in this episode, Part 2, include:
- Remove Countertop, Fur down and Valance over the sink
- Install Granite Countertops and Faucet
- Paint the Walls
- Install a Vinyl Backsplash
- Add Hardware and Light Fixtures
Check out the “Kitchen Renovation” episode article for more information!
Great job and lots of fun to watch! Can the vinyl backsplash be successfully applied over old ceramic tile if you add primer to fill the indentations on the tiled surface? Where might I be able to buy some vinyl similar to type used on this project? Thanks very much for all the great remodeling tips, as well!
Hi, Kathleen,
For the best results, we recommend applying a thin acrylic panel.
This homeowner owns a sign store and printed his backsplash — it’s a unique project, so for similar results, we recommend contacting your local sign store and asking if they can provide a similar product.
You can also check your local home center, but home centers mostly carry vinyl tile, as opposed to a banner or sheet, for this purpose.
Good luck!

Can you please provide the wall and cabinet paint color and manufacturer? Really enjoyed this episode.
I think the episode was 939?
