        "text": "A shell estimate covers only the exterior structure, typically including the concrete slab foundation, steel framing, metal siding, roofing, exterior doors, and windows. It gives you a dried-in, weather-tight building, leaving the interior entirely open and unfinished. A turnkey estimate includes everything required to make the home move-in ready, encompassing interior framing, insulation, drywall, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, flooring, cabinetry, and final fixtures. If you choose a shell, you are responsible for handling or subcontracting all interior build-out phases yourself.",
