        "text": "Ceramic and porcelain tile offer lower material costs and easy maintenance, while natural marble delivers high-end aesthetics but requires ongoing care. Ceramic and porcelain resist water and stains naturally without needing sealers, making them ideal for high-splatter zones behind cooktops. Marble provides unique veining and classic luxury, but it is porous, softer, and sensitive to acidic foods like tomato sauce or lemon juice. If you choose marble, it must be sealed during installation and resealed regularly to prevent staining. Porcelain can also mimic stone patterns if you want the marble look without the ongoing upkeep.",
