        "text": "Before scheduling installation, measure the wall dimensions and select your tile style, finish, and layout pattern, such as subway, herringbone, or vertical stack. Check whether your existing wall framing is plumb and square, especially in older homes, as uneven walls may need shimming or reframing. You will also want to order an extra 10 to 15 percent of tile beyond square footage to account for waste, cuts, and future repairs. Finally, decide on grout type, grout joint width, and trim pieces like bullnose or metal edge profiles.",
