        "text": "In the City of San Diego, a same-size tub-to-tub or shower-to-shower replacement may qualify for a no-plan permit exemption when the size and location do not change, but other work can require approval. Context: Moving a valve, drain, electrical component, or layout can change the project category, and requirements vary by jurisdiction across San Diego County. Key factors: exact city; scope of plumbing and electrical work; layout changes; condo or HOA rules; and whether structural work is involved. Practical guidance: Give the contractor the full scope, not just “replace the shower,” and ask who confirms and handles applicable approvals. Elite Remodeling & Design’s published process includes permit coordination when the project scope calls for it.",
