        "text": "Most room extensions take several months from initial concept to completion, with active construction generally spanning 8 to 16 weeks. The overall duration is heavily shaped by pre-construction steps, including drawing blueprints, obtaining engineering approvals, and securing county or city permits. Once foundation footings are poured, progress moves through framing, roof tie-in, exterior sheathing, rough mechanicals, and drywall installation. Unforeseen weather delays or specialized custom finishes like matched exterior stucco can alter finishing timelines.",
