        "text": "Estimates can vary due to differences in contractor experience, overhead, proposed materials, and the level of detail in the scope of work. Some contractors might include higher-quality finishes or more extensive prep work, while others may bid on a more basic scope. Differences in insurance, warranty coverage, and subcontractor relationships also influence pricing. Always compare what's included in each estimate, not just the final number.",
