        "text": "The total cost of a room addition depends on square footage, foundation requirements, plumbing and electrical tie-ins, and finish selections. Ground-level additions requiring new concrete foundations and exterior integration involve significant structural investment. If you include a bathroom or wet bar, coordinating licensed plumbing and electrical sub-trades will increase costs compared to a simple bedroom expansion. High-end finishes, such as custom tile, premium trim carpentry, or specialty drywall textures, also affect your final budget. Reviewing structural needs versus aesthetic finishes early allows you to balance functional expansion with your target spending limit.",
