        "text": "The usual order is planning, demolition, substrate repair, plumbing and electrical rough-in, shower-base preparation, waterproofing, inspection or testing where applicable, tile installation, grouting, sealing, fixtures, and final cleanup. Context: Elite Remodeling & Design describes a coordinated process from design and selections through construction and final inspection. Key factors: - Existing framing and water damage can add work. - Moving plumbing changes scope and may affect permits. - Tile size, pattern, niches, benches, and glass affect sequencing. Practical guidance: Choose tile, trim, grout color, fixtures, and accessories before installation begins. Ask for the point at which waterproofing is checked before it is covered. This planning-first approach helps keep the bathroom layout and construction decisions aligned.",

Existing damage, layout changes, niches, benches, and specialty tile can change the sequence and scope."
