        "text": "Design changes requested during the construction phase can significantly impact both project cost and timeline. Each modification often requires reassessing materials, reordering, rescheduling trades, and potentially obtaining new permits, leading to additional expenses and delays. For instance, a change in cabinet layout after framing is complete will incur costs for rework and extended labor. To mitigate this, Frasheski Construction emphasizes thorough planning and design finalization before construction begins. We encourage clients to make all design decisions upfront to avoid costly changes once work is underway.",
