        "text": "Repairing an existing frame preserves existing custom casings, reduces dust, and avoids disrupting adjacent kitchen tile backsplashes or finished drywall. However, if the jamb is rotted or structurally compromised, a patch will only offer temporary relief. Installing a new pre-hung frame or rebuilding the jamb from scratch requires more labor—including removing trim, shimming, refitting the door, and repainting—but delivers a plumb, durable opening that closes properly without ongoing adjustments.",
