        "text": "Restoring an old home focuses on preserving its original character and historical accuracy, often using period-appropriate materials and techniques to return it to a specific historical state. Renovation, conversely, updates a home for modern living, which might include significant structural changes, new layouts, and contemporary finishes. The choice often depends on your goals: do you want to honor the past or create a modern space? We work with clients to understand these distinctions and help them choose the best approach for their property.",
