Handyman in Long Beach: FAQ
Who is responsible for the gas line to my stove?
Past the meter, the owner. Long Beach Utilities says customer houselines are the property owner's to maintain and asks owners to check for leaks and corrosion. For a gas emergency, call the utility at 562-570-2140.
My house is from the 1920s. Is the old paint safe to sand?
Not without precautions. The city's health department notes that paint in homes built before 1978 can contain lead, and it links lead-safe guidance for painting and home maintenance. Families who qualify can ask about the city's lead hazard program.
Are the houses in California Heights Craftsman?
Mostly not. The city says Spanish Colonial Revival homes predominate there, with other period revival styles and some California Bungalows. Some homes, mostly California Bungalows, were moved in from elsewhere.
Are your prices the same in Long Beach?
Yes. The same upfront flat pricing applies across LA, including Long Beach. You approve the price before we start.
