        "text": "The total cost of a room addition depends on its square footage, the type of room being built, and site conditions. A standard family room or bedroom addition with straightforward framing and wiring sits at a lower price point than a primary suite or in-law suite that requires extensive plumbing, custom tile showers, and bathroom vanities. Additional factors influencing your budget include tie-ins to your existing roofline, grading or excavation challenges, structural foundation requirements, and whether your electrical panel or HVAC system needs an upgrade to support the extra space.",
