        "text": "The overall investment for a room extension depends on square footage, foundation requirements, roofline modifications, and whether plumbing or HVAC lines must be extended. Expanding a simple living area or bedroom requires framing, drywall, insulation, and electrical work. In contrast, extending a kitchen or en-suite bathroom adds significant expense for rough-in plumbing, cabinetry, and tile installation. Exterior finishes also play a role; matching existing finishes like full-house stuccoing or custom siding will influence material costs. Bay City Remodeling provides free quotes to establish accurate scopes before building.",
