        "text": "The cost of a kitchen addition depends on the added square footage, foundation type, roof tie-in complexity, and interior finish grades. Building outward requires ground excavation, concrete footings, structural framing, exterior siding, and new roofing, which increases base structural expenses compared to interior work. In addition, plumbing line extensions, dedicated electrical circuits for modern appliances, custom cabinetry, and high-end surfaces like quartz or natural stone will significantly shape your overall project investment.",
