        "text": "Select a licensed general contractor who understands total building envelope assemblies, wall framing, and commercial HVAC layouts, rather than someone who only sells ceiling tiles. Sound control rarely involves just the tile; it requires evaluating structural deck attachments, duct penetrations, lighting layouts, and wall connections above the grid. Ask whether the contractor provides comprehensive physical remedies, including framing deck-to-deck partition extensions, installing plenum mass loaded barriers, and resealing perimeter grid connections to ensure speech privacy goals are met.",
