        "text": "In areas like Brandon and surrounding Hillsborough County, high regional humidity makes proper ventilation and moisture-resistant construction materials critical. Small bathrooms accumulate moisture quickly, which can damage drywall and invite mildew if an adequately rated exhaust fan is missing. Using mold-resistant drywall, robust liquid or sheet waterproofing membranes behind shower tile, and quality cementitious backer boards protects wall cavities from coastal humidity. Proper ventilation ducts vented directly to the home exterior prevent damp air from recirculating inside the ceiling.",
