AGA and range cookers generate sustained heat and are often installed within wider cooker runs or alcove settings. Metal splashbacks are particularly well suited to these environments due to their durability, heat tolerance, and ease of maintenance.

Unlike tiled or glass alternatives, a metal splashback can be fabricated as a single, joint-free panel, within the sheet size, reducing cleaning lines and improving long-term performance. This is especially beneficial behind larger cookers where multiple heat zones and splashes are concentrated.

• heat-tolerant surfaces suitable for cooker zones
• joint-free panels for easier cleaning
• durable and impact-resistant
• precisely fabricated to fit around appliances and walls

We manufacture splashbacks to suit the larger proportions of AGA and range cookers, with sheet sizes available up to:

3 metres × 1.25 metres

This allows most installations to be completed with a single continuous panel, avoiding visible joints and ensuring a clean, uninterrupted finish across the full cooker width.

Each splashback is produced to your exact measurements and can include:

• cut-outs for sockets, switches, and extractor units
• full-height panels behind cooker alcoves
• returns and folded edges for a wrapped finish
• integration with worktops and upstands

The choice of finish plays a key role in how a splashback integrates with an AGA or range cooker setting. Many kitchens favour softer, less reflective finishes that complement cabinetry, worktops, and surrounding materials.

• Aged finishes – warm, lived-in tones with natural variation
• Antique finishes – deeper, darker surfaces with richer contrast
• Natural finishes – clean surfaces that develop character over time
• Polished or stainless finishes – brighter, more reflective options for modern kitchens

Aged and antique finishes are particularly popular for AGA splashbacks, where they provide a softer visual balance against larger cooker units and traditional cabinetry.

What is the best splashback for an AGA or range cooker?

Metal splashbacks are one of the most practical and durable options for AGA and range cookers. Materials such as brass, zinc, and copper offer a more decorative finish, while stainless steel provides a clean, highly heat-resistant solution for modern kitchens.

For most AGA kitchens, aged or antique metal splashbacks are preferred for their softer appearance and ability to complement traditional cabinetry.

Can splashbacks be made to fit around sockets and cooker hoods?

Yes. All of our splashbacks are made to measure and can include precision cut-outs for sockets, switches, extractor units, and cooker hoods. This ensures a clean, accurate fit with minimal installation work.

Are stainless steel splashbacks suitable for range cookers?

Yes — stainless steel splashbacks are highly heat-resistant, easy to clean, and well suited to cooker zones. They are often used in contemporary or commercial-style kitchens where a practical, low-maintenance surface is required.

Do aged or patina finishes require maintenance?

Natural, aged, and antique metal finishes are considered “living surfaces” and may develop further character over time. Light cleaning with a soft cloth is usually sufficient, and occasional waxing can be used to moderate patina development if required.

How large can a splashback be made?

We manufacture splashbacks in sizes up to 3 metres in length, allowing for full-width, joint-free panels behind most AGA and range cooker installations.
