        "text": "The process begins with an initial space evaluation and architectural layout planning to decide where to place walls, closets, and utility rooms. Before any framing starts, existing foundation walls and concrete slabs must be inspected for leaks or moisture issues. Once framing outlines the rooms, licensed trades run the rough plumbing, electrical wiring, and HVAC supply ducts. City inspectors verify these rough systems before insulation and drywall are installed. After drywall taping and texturing, the final phase includes painting, trim carpentry, flooring installation, and setting light fixtures, doors, and plumbing fixtures.",
