        "text": "Yes, marble is a popular choice for shower walls and floors due to its natural beauty and durability. However, special consideration must be given to its porous nature. It is essential for marble in showers to be properly sealed upon installation and resealed regularly to prevent water penetration, staining, and mildew growth. The installation must also include a professional waterproofing system beneath the marble to protect the underlying structure. Textured or honed finishes are often preferred for shower floors for better slip resistance.",
