        "text": "Drywall installation cannot begin until all exterior framing, roofing, exterior wrap, and windows are weather-tight, and all rough mechanicals pass inspection. This includes any electrical wiring, plumbing supply lines, and HVAC ductwork placed inside the bump-out. Additionally, exterior wall insulation must be properly placed and verified. Drywall is vulnerable to moisture, so starting before the building envelope is secure risks mold growth or joint compound failure. Once inspections clear and insulation is placed, drywall hanging can proceed.",
