        "text": "Deciding whether to add an attached bathroom to an extra bedroom depends on how you plan to use the room and your plumbing budget. If the addition will serve as a guest suite, in-law quarters, or primary bedroom, an attached bathroom provides privacy and convenience. However, adding a bathroom requires trenching, drainage connections, fixture installations, and waterproofing, which adds substantial plumbing and tile work to the build. If an existing hall bathroom is nearby and easily accessible, you can reduce construction scope by omitting plumbing.",
