Long Beach at a glance

Long Beach runs the largest city-owned gas utility in California, one of only three in the state. Cal Heights and Bixby Knolls have Spanish Colonial and Craftsman homes from the 1920s and 1930s. Naples is a neighborhood of small islands and canals in Alamitos Bay.

The 1933 Long Beach earthquake led to California's Field Act for school construction. Belmont Shore and Alamitos Beach have older apartment buildings and bungalow courts near the beach. North Long Beach has many post-war tract houses on concrete slabs.

Coastal neighborhoods get the marine layer and salt air, which is hard on metal fixtures and outdoor equipment. Summers stay mild near the water and get hotter inland, and most rain falls in winter.

Utilities and permits

Long Beach Utilities provides water from local groundwater and imported supplies, and it also runs the city's gas and sewer service. Wastewater goes to Long Beach Utilities, with treatment by the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts. Southern California Edison supplies electricity, and natural gas comes from Long Beach Utilities. Building permits are handled by Long Beach Development Services.

Questions about Long Beach

Who supplies water in Long Beach?

Long Beach Utilities provides water from local groundwater and imported supplies, and it also runs the city's gas and sewer service. 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 Long Beach Utilities. Report outages to the utility. If you smell gas, leave the building first and call from outside.

Do repairs in Long Beach need a permit?

Many do, including most electrical, plumbing, heating and roofing work. Permits are handled by Long Beach Development Services, 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.

A clear description and a couple of photos go a long way toward a quick and accurate answer.
