It costs between $592 to $1,317 to tile a backsplash, with the average tile cost being $1,000. Again, these figures are not set in stone and many factors influence the actual cost to install tile backsplashes such as the type of tyle, the installation area,  the square feet, the complexity of the planned design, and the labor costs. The labor costs of installing a backsplash are normally between $40 to $60 per hour, but note that not all contractors charge per hour; some charge per square foot and others charge a flat labor fee. If you change your mind, know the average cost to remove backsplash is between $3 and $6 per square foot - so it’s best to be totally sure you want a backsplash.
