        "text": "Rough-in work involves installing the hidden structural and utility components of your addition, such as framing, foundational plumbing pipes, electrical wiring, and HVAC ducts, before walls are enclosed. Finish work, in contrast, applies to all the visible elements installed after the rough-ins are complete and inspected, including drywall, paint, flooring, fixtures, and trim. This comparison highlights that rough-in establishes the skeleton and circulatory system, while finish work provides the skin and aesthetic appeal.",
