        "text": "Before bringing in an installation contractor, determine your tile dimensions, purchase 15 to 20 percent extra material for cuts and veining matching, and inspect for subfloor squeaks or floor slope. Because natural stone slabs vary in shade and pattern, unbox multiple cartons to dry-layout how the grain flows across the room. Additionally, note transitions to adjoining rooms, as marble plus its mortar bed and underlayment often sits significantly higher than thin vinyl or hardwood, requiring transitional threshold planning.",
