        "text": "Project costs are primarily determined by structural scope, finish material selections, mechanical relocations, and current site conditions. Moving plumbing stacks or electrical panels adds substantial trade labor compared to keeping existing layouts intact. Material grades—such as choosing imported marble versus standard ceramic tile—also significantly shift budgets. Before a general contractor provides a realistic estimate, you should establish a clear scope of work and decide whether structural walls are moving. A transparent GC tracks these trade scopes and material allowances so homeowners avoid surprise mid-project change orders.",
