        "text": "Backsplash installation costs depend on the square footage, the type of tile chosen, wall condition, and the complexity of cuts. Basic ceramic subway tile on a clean, flat wall sits at the lower end of the labor scale. Intricate patterns like herringbone, small mosaic sheets, or thick natural stone require substantially more cutting time and precision around outlets, under-cabinet lighting, and corners. If the existing wall has significant drywall damage or old adhesive that must be scraped and repaired before tiling, labor time increases accordingly.",
