        "text": "Adding an additional living suite involves zoning verification, architectural plans, building permits, structural work, and interior finishing. We begin by discussing your functional goals, whether you need universal design features for aging parents or private living for guests. Once designs are finalized, construction plans are submitted to local building departments for approvals. The physical build starts with site preparation or demolition, followed by rough-in plumbing, electrical, framing, and drywall. Finally, our team handles cabinetry, tile installation, fixtures, paint, and trim to create a cohesive living area that blends with your home.",
