        "text": "A detached ADU requires connections for water, sewer (or septic), electricity, and gas (if applicable), independent of or tied into the main house's utilities. These connections often necessitate trenching across the property. Before construction, it's essential to understand the capacity of your existing utility services and potential upgrades needed. Hometelligent manages the planning and coordination for utility extensions, working with local service providers and adhering to regulations in areas like Castro Valley and Newark.",
