At the same time, your contractor will check for and acquire any necessary permits. This is super important if you're making changes to plumbing, electrical, or structural elements, as local jurisdictions like those in the East Bay Area have specific requirements. Don't skip this; it prevents future headaches.",

After demolition, the framing, plumbing, and electrical rough-ins happen. This means getting all the pipes and wires in their correct, new locations before walls are sealed up. Inspections usually occur at this point to ensure everything is up to code.",
