        "text": "Adding a bathroom to a home addition or basement involves tying into the existing main water supply and sewer line. For a new addition, the distance to the main sewer line dictates the trenching and grade slope required for proper drainage. In a basement remodel, if the main sewer line exits the foundation above floor level, you must install a sewage ejector pump system or trench concrete to access gravity drains. Assessing these connection points early helps clarify overall project complexity.",
