        "text": "The material cost for moisture-resistant drywall is typically higher than standard drywall, often ranging from 10% to 30% more per sheet. Installation labor costs are generally similar to standard drywall, as the installation process is largely the same. The overall project cost difference will depend on the total square footage requiring the specialized drywall. While the upfront material cost is higher, the enhanced durability and resistance to moisture in appropriate areas can offer long-term savings by reducing the need for mold remediation or premature replacement.",
