        "text": "Dry-lay planning and centered layout measurements are essential before setting the first tile. An installer determines the kitchen's focal points—frequently centered behind the range or main sink—and snaps reference lines across the wall. This layout step avoids ending runs with slivers of tile that are prone to breakage and look unpolished. It also establishes whether the layout requires metal edge trims, like Schluter strips, or bullnose finish pieces where the tile terminates beside cabinets. HH Remodeling focuses on precision cuts and balanced margins so visible edges align neatly with existing upper cabinets and trim molding.",
