        "text": "Coastal homes can require extra attention to moisture exposure, corrosion-resistant selections, ventilation, and weatherproof connections, but the specific needs depend on the property and construction details. This matters in Coronado, Imperial Beach, and coastal San Diego neighborhoods.\n\n**Context:** Expanding the building envelope introduces new exterior walls, windows, roof connections, and penetrations that must perform as a coordinated system. Existing moisture damage should be resolved before finishes conceal it.\n\n**Key factors:**\n- Condition of exterior walls and existing openings\n- Window and door exposure\n- Corrosion resistance of exterior components\n- Waterproofing, flashing, and ventilation details\n\n**Practical guidance:** Ask for an assessment of moisture-prone areas before demolition and identify how new work will connect to the existing exterior. Include durable, maintainable materials in the selection discussion rather than choosing only by appearance.\n\nElite Remodeling & Design can account for existing conditions while developing the kitchen and addition scope.",
