        "text": "In homes across the Denver metro area, seasonal shifts, soil expansion, and shifting foundations can cause subtle framing movement, potentially stressing rigid plumbing connections beneath heavy tubs. In older Denver neighborhoods with homes built in the mid-20th century, removing a tub often uncovers aged galvanized drain pipes or cast-iron stacks that require updating to modern PVC or ABS. A local contractor familiar with area housing stock can inspect for settling damage behind the tub surround and coordinate necessary plumbing updates alongside custom finish carpentry.",
