        "text": "Relocating a sink, dishwasher, or range adds significant design flexibility, but it increases labor and material costs. Moving a sink requires extending water supply lines and modifying drain and vent stacks beneath floors or inside walls, which can be challenging over finished basements or concrete slabs. Moving a gas range involves running pipe extensions and ensuring exterior ventilation ducts meet local safety codes. If your budget is tight, retaining your rough utility locations keeps expenses down.",
