To help balance the City’s budget during this economic downturn, Development Services will be closed on alternating Fridays for staff furloughs (unpaid time off). During these furlough days, our Department's regular services, including inspections, will be unavailable. To see a schedule of impacted service days, visit longbeach.gov/furlough.

MODIFIED OPERATIONS DUE TO COVID-19

The City building inspection team will continue to provide services for residential and commercial projects requested within 24 hours. However, extra degrees of precaution will be taken to protect the public as well as inspectors, such as:

• Avoiding handshaking
• Asking if there is anyone sick on the property or project prior to starting the inspection
• Exercising proper social distancing during the inspection

For more details, please call 562.570.7648 (PMIT) during business hours.
Our certified inspectors work throughout the City to ensure that both residential and commercial buildings meet compliance for electrical, plumbing, mechanical, and building safety issues. Each of our inspectors has extensive training and is well-informed to help you construct a successful building project.

We can work together to effectively construct safe buildings that add to the vitality of our dynamic City. Our inspectors are very interested in providing assistance on your building project and are ready to work with you!
