        "text": "Total costs depend heavily on the size of the room, structural alterations, and the quality of finish materials you select. Labor covers custom framing, drywall installation, finish carpentry, and tile setting, alongside licensed trade work for moving sinks, gas ranges, or electrical circuits. Cabinetry, countertops, and tile choices cause the largest budget swings. Setting aside a contingency reserve of 10% to 15% is recommended to cover hidden conditions, such as subfloor water damage or outdated wiring discovered once old cabinets and drywall are removed.",
