Huntington Beach at a glance
An oil boom hit Huntington Beach in 1920 and shaped the city for decades. The first wooden pier went up in 1904, and a concrete pier replaced it in 1914. The Orange County Sanitation District runs a treatment plant in Huntington Beach.
The Permit Center handles building, mechanical, electrical and plumbing permits. A 1965 federal housing study found that 81 percent of the city's homes had been built after April 1960. Salt air near the beach corrodes outdoor fixtures, hinges and HVAC coils faster than inland.
Ocean breezes keep summers mild near the coast. Hard water is common and leaves scale on fixtures, valves and water heaters.
Local utilities and rules
The city blends local groundwater from its own wells with imported water from the Metropolitan Water District. Wastewater goes to the city, with treatment by the Orange County Sanitation District. Southern California Edison supplies electricity, and natural gas comes from SoCalGas. Building permits are handled by the Community Development Department's Permit Center.
Questions about Huntington Beach
Who supplies water in Huntington Beach?
The city blends local groundwater from its own wells with imported water from the Metropolitan Water District. Billing and water quality questions go to them. For leaks inside your home, a plumber is the right call.
Who do I call about a power outage or gas smell?
Electricity comes from Southern California Edison and natural gas from SoCalGas. Report outages to the utility. If you smell gas, leave the building first and call from outside.
Do repairs in Huntington Beach need a permit?
Many do, including most electrical, plumbing, heating and roofing work. Permits are handled by the Community Development Department's Permit Center, and the pro doing the work usually pulls them.
How do I check a contractor here?
California licenses plumbing contractors through the Contractors State License Board, which has an online license check. Electrical contractors in California are licensed by the Contractors State License Board, and electricians working for them need state certification. Ask for license or registration details and look them up before work starts.
Can I use this if I rent?
Yes, but many repairs are the landlord's responsibility. Tell your landlord in writing, and check with them before booking work on the building.
If you rent, a short written note to your landlord now can save a lot of back and forth later.
