        "text": "Whether a permit is required for deck board replacement in the East Bay area, including Berkeley, Oakland, and Albany, depends on the extent of the work. Minor, like-for-like board replacement typically does not require a permit. However, if the project involves altering the deck's footprint, structural changes, or significant repairs to the support system, a permit may be necessary.
