        "text": "Preventing future rot involves ensuring proper water management and sealing. Key measures include maintaining intact and properly installed flashing around the door, regularly inspecting and resealing any caulk joints, and ensuring efficient drainage away from the door area. Checking that gutters are clear and downspouts direct water away from the foundation is crucial. Additionally, consider installing a drip edge above the door and ensuring any landscaping does not trap moisture against the frame. Regular visual inspections can catch minor issues before they become major problems.",
