        "text": "Kitchen remodels in Berkeley often require permits, especially if the project involves changes to the layout, plumbing, electrical, or structural elements. Cosmetic updates like painting or replacing cabinets in their existing locations typically do not require permits. However, any work affecting walls, gas lines, major appliances, or sinks moving to new positions will likely need approval from the City of Berkeley. We manage the necessary permit applications as part of our service to ensure compliance with local building codes.",
