        "text": "The duration for structural beam installation depends on the project's scope and complexity. For a straightforward residential beam replacement or installation, the process from demolition to beam placement might take one to three days. However, this does not include the time required for engineering assessments, permit acquisition, or subsequent finishing work like drywall repair and painting. Permit approval can add several weeks. A comprehensive timeline will be provided by your contractor after an initial assessment and review of engineering plans.",
