Removing an old laminate backsplash isn't easy (or that fun) but it can be done and it is worth it! We've been working on it in little bits so it has taken us a while - so far, we've removed the upper cabinets, removed the backsplash, chipped away the glue, built the wall back up smooth with spackle and primed it. Next we'll be painting and putting up shelves.
Enjoyed the project?

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Thanks so much for this post! Only one I've found on this.
Does anyone have laminate backsplash that is a continuation of the counter top? Mine is and I have some corners where pieces of laminate edging have come off. I have to do something soon as I just can't stand it any more.
Once you removed the backsplash, how did you deal with the glue? Did you just spackle over it?
