        "text": "Modifications range from simple fixture updates to full structural rebuilds. Minor updates like surface-mounted grab bars and handheld showerheads take little time, whereas major modifications require framing changes, drywall repair, and plumbing adjustments. For instance, converting a traditional fiberglass tub into a zero-threshold roll-in shower involves tearing out the subfloor, waterproofing, slope leveling, and laying custom non-slip tile. A practical tradeoff is balancing immediate needs against long-term plans: full bathroom reconfigurations take longer and require trades coordination, but they prevent the need for repeated, disruptive retrofits later.",
