        "text": "Repair costs vary based on square footage, the materials affected, and whether finishes like tile, vanities, or custom textures need rebuilding. A targeted drywall ceiling or wall patch costs significantly less than rebuilding a flooded bathroom that requires new subflooring, waterproofing membranes, and vanity installation. Taking clear photos, noting the water source, and securing a detailed written scope of work during an on-site consultation ensures all framing, insulation, and finish labor are accounted for.",

        "description": "Costs depend on square footage, depth of water penetration, structural framing repairs, and the specific finishes or fixtures that must be rebuilt."
