        "text": "Installing new shower tile typically takes three to five days, depending on the scope of the project. Demolition, plumbing adjustments, and backing board installation take place on the first day. Applying waterproofing membranes and creating a sloped shower pan adds another day to ensure proper cure times. Setting the tile, allowing the thin-set mortar to bond, grouting, and sealing complete the remaining steps. Custom patterns like herringbone, intricate mosaics, or custom shower niches can add an extra day of labor. Rushing the process risks trapped moisture or cracked grout lines, so allowing proper drying intervals between coats of waterproofing and grout sealant is essential.",
