While you should always discuss any major changes with your landlord or lady, and while they may not always agree, it will be very difficult for them to say no to any renovations that include Smart Tiles. 

Two of the most used rooms in any apartment or house are the kitchen and bathroom and these, thanks to our no-mess, self-adhesive wall tiles, can be individualized in no time. With our great collections of Chomatic, Mosaik and Motif peel and stick tiles, the backsplash in your kitchen and/or bathroom will look unique and fresh with very little effort or fuss. You can even decorate and re-decorate as many times as you like and when you move out, it’s so easy to simply peel off the tiles and return the property to its neutral beginnings.

Still have a reluctant landlord? Just tell him or her these three facts about our stick on tiles:
To install, there is no need for any grout or special tools.

• Smart tiles are resistant to the heat of stovetops and the humidity of bathrooms.
• To remove, one simply needs to heat up the surface with a hair dryer and gently peel the tiles off starting with the corners.
  
  So easy, landlords might decide to change their own backsplashes, too!
