What this Canton range does—and does not—mean

The 1.04 adjustment is a broad planning assumption used consistently across HomeScope examples. It is not a measured price index or claim about the Canton market. Site conditions, foundation, structure, products, doors, utilities, driveway work, finishes, contractor availability, and written local proposals determine actual cost.
