        "text": "Total installation costs depend on the square footage, tile format, room configuration, and existing floor condition. Factors that alter your budget include the demolition of old surfaces, subfloor leveling, and whether you select large-format tiles, which require specialized leveling clip systems and extra mortar. Complex patterns, curbless shower transitions, and decorative mosaics also involve additional cutting and labor. You should factor in materials like cement board, thin-set mortar, grout, and threshold transitions when reviewing overall project estimates.",
