        "text": "A room extension involves building out an existing footprint, such as pushing out an exterior wall to lengthen a master bedroom or expand a kitchen. A full home addition usually refers to constructing an entirely new standalone space, such as a detached guest suite, accessory dwelling unit (ADU), or an added multi-room wing. Choosing an extension keeps your layout connected and often requires tying directly into existing framing, roofing, and flooring. A full addition requires independent framing and foundation work from the ground up, making the overall scope and permitting footprint broader.",
