        "text": "Metal garages offer faster construction timelines, lower maintenance, and greater resistance to rot, termites, and fire compared to traditional wood-framed buildings. However, metal garages may require specialized insulation systems to manage interior condensation and heat transfer. Wood garages often match traditional residential home aesthetics more easily, but they require ongoing exterior painting, pest management, and carry higher long-term upkeep expenses. Your property zoning and HOA design guidelines may also influence which material fits best.",
