Alameda homes, up close
Alameda Municipal Power, owned by the city, supplies electricity. Alameda has thousands of Victorian-era homes, one of the largest collections in the Bay Area.
Ferries connect Alameda to San Francisco. Shared laundry rooms are common in older buildings, so renters should check whether the machines belong to the landlord or a vendor. The USS Hornet museum is docked at Alameda Point.
Garage fridges in inland summer heat run hard for months. Coils and door seals deserve a look. Salt air wears outdoor metal.
Utilities, permits and licensing
California registers appliance repair dealers through the Bureau of Household Goods and Services. Ask the tech whether the part is in stock or has to be ordered, and how long that usually takes.
Who runs what: EBMUD for water, the city's sewers, with treatment at EBMUD's plant for wastewater and the City of Alameda Planning, Building and Transportation Department for permits. Electricity here comes from Alameda Municipal Power, the city's own utility, and gas from PG&E. Many older homes have raised foundations and basements. The Gold Coast has large early 1900s houses.

Common questions
Will a repair void my warranty?
Check your warranty first. Manufacturer warranties may require an authorized servicer for covered repairs. Ask whether the company is an authorized servicer for your brand.
Why does my washer shake or walk across the floor?
An uneven load is the usual reason. If it happens with small loads too, worn shock absorbers, suspension springs or a machine that's not level are worth having checked.
Do you cover Bay Farm Island and Webster Street?
Yes, as long as a pro is available. Alameda ZIP codes 94501, 94502 are in range, and that includes Bay Farm Island, the West End, the East End and Park Street. Share the street name when you call so we can check the right part of town.
Any Alameda details worth mentioning when I call?
Alameda Point was a Navy air station until 1997. The city covers Alameda Island and Bay Farm Island. Much of the land along the edges is fill. It helps to say roughly when your home was built.
Can you fix an appliance I bought online?
Usually, yes. Independent techs work on most major brands. Have the model number ready so they can check parts availability.
Write down any error codes, noises or smells. Details like that speed things up.
