Re: [DIY] tile backsplash and electrical outlets

 

Go to home depot and get " box extenders" . Theres 2 in a pack in tbe electrical dept. near the electrical remodel boxes. They come with long screws. Pull out your outlets and switches, slip in the extenders and replace the outlets.

I would get longer screws. It is the easiest and the less expensive
option.
