Ceramic, vitrified tiles, engineered stones.. any surface which isn't porous so that it doesn't stain easily.

HELP: Small L-shaped kitchen with refuse chute on wall!
Q

Are you saying that cooking next to the chute would gross you out even if its covered? Andd to use it for its intended purpose? In the first picture, it looks like the stove is directly underneath the chute, but I can see in other pics that it is not. I think it is far enough away. If everything is bagged properly, it shouldn't be that bad. You will have to check on local code regarding having the stove next to the window. Code may make your decision for you. People usually just put shorter cabinets above that type of range hood. I would recommend doing so because you need all the storage you can get. The hood--being different from the bank of cabinets--will provide relief to the eye. With cabinets above, it'll still feel balanced. And, as for covering the chute, do you want to cover it and restrict access or do you still need to use it for its intended purpose and just want to camouflage it? To help the room feel pleasant, cheery, and light, I recommend using a glass tile. Even though it's applied to a wall, the translucency still shows and evokes a sense of the adjectives above. I think it would help keep things light. Consider a slightly higher toe-kick underneath the lower cabinets. It helps to create a lighter-footed feeling. You could also consider cabinets that have furniture style feet. for a more open feeling. Your kitchen seems like an ideal room to use modern, lacquered cabinets. I don't know if you like the super-modern look, but I think it could be nice. Maybe just for the uppers. Use a medium-to-light toned wood on the bottom. A limestone floor might be nice. Or you can do wood or laminate. You could go with dark or light. I think it's mostly about preference.

Hi Alice, that's a really good question - challenging dilemma with a strong limitation (no hacking!) but I believe workable. Would you consider making changes to the backsplash? Adding some strip lighting will help too. Given the pink checkered floor tiles cannot be changed, I'd favour going for very neutral and clean looking cabinetry - to reduce visual clutter and bring in some harmony. Regardless of colour of finish choice, I prefer cabinetry that's not see-through. How about natural wood finishes: All-white with wood countertops might work as well: I leave it to the professionals to give their advice!

Hi Thrishna, looks like you've put quite a lot of effort cleaning it already. Have you already tried the following: • Oxygenated bleach • Warm water • Coarse scrubbing brush (like an old toothbrush) • Towel • Lemon • Grout sealer TIP: Cleaning coloured grout should be done with special care. Bleaching agents (like chlorine bleach) can discolour and harm the coloured grout. Fortunately, oxygenated bleach does not contain corrosive chemicals and is safe to use on all grout. For those impossible-to-remove stains, you might want to consider: A commercial tile and grout cleaner A coarser brush (avoid using metal bristles, though, as they can erode the grout) Grout stain-proof If after you’ve tried all three, the stain is still hanging strong, you may have to resort to removing the old grout and replacing it with new. I got the above tips from our article "Household Headaches: How to Clean Tile Grout" here: https://www.houzz.com.sg/magazine/household-headaches-how-to-clean-tile-grout-stsetivw-vs~33806355 It's quite an extensive guide, so you might want start out with the lightest options?
