        "text": "In older Denver metro homes, shower remodeling often reveals settled floor framing, out-of-plumb stud walls, or outdated galvanized plumbing that must be corrected before new tile goes in. Uneven framing prevents tile from sitting flat, which can cause lippage and weak bond lines. Furthermore, freeze-thaw cycles and seasonal humidity shifts in the Front Range make proper substrate stabilization and flexible perimeter movement joints vital so tiles do not crack. Having a contractor inspect the underlying rough carpentry and rough plumbing ensures your new tile installation remains sound long-term.",
