        "text": "Most significant home renovation projects in Orange County require permits, especially those involving structural changes, plumbing, electrical work, or substantial additions. Minor cosmetic updates typically do not. Your general contractor is responsible for identifying which permits are needed and for securing them from the relevant local authorities, such as the city or county building department. Obtaining proper permits ensures your project complies with safety codes and local regulations.",
