        "text": "In San Diego County, cost depends more on demolition, waterproofing, layout changes, tile complexity, and finish selections than on tile area alone. A published 2026 local guide places a standard complete shower with mid-range ceramic or porcelain tile around $3,500–$6,500, but project-specific estimates can vary widely. Context: Elite Remodeling & Design handles bathroom design and construction coordination, so the estimate should separate design, demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, tile, fixtures, and related work. Key factors: - Large-format, natural stone, mosaics, niches, benches, and curbless details increase labor. - Relocating plumbing can add construction and permit-related scope. - Hidden damage is not always visible before demolition. Practical guidance: Compare itemized estimates and ask whether waterproofing, substrate repair, disposal, sealing, and final inspection are included. A detailed scope is more useful than a low square-foot price.",
