  "articleBody": "Before kitchen backsplash installation begins, confirm the layout, tile quantity, wall condition, outlet plan, setting materials, grout, and finishing details. Remove countertop clutter, protect nearby surfaces, and make sure the installer has access to the kitchen. If outlets, wiring, plumbing, cabinets, or walls will change, discuss permit and inspection requirements before demolition.",
