Long Beach is home to 39 licensed roofing contractors (C-39, CSLB September 2026) — #19 in California, about 3% of the 1,444 contractor licenses based here.
Nearby in Los Angeles County: Los Angeles (177), Van Nuys (34), Torrance (32), Woodland Hills (31).
23% of Long Beach's C-39 licensees hold more than one classification — most often B General Building Contractor (21%), C-8 Concrete Contractor (3%). Extra classifications can change how carriers rate your general liability and workers' comp, so list every license class when you quote.
Business structure: 38% sole owners, 56% corporations, 5% LLCs; median time licensed 6.9 years.
For roofers, underwriters focus first on: fire from torch-applied membranes and hot-asphalt work; and completed-operations claims when a leak shows up months or years after the job. See the full coverage guide for roofing contractors for limits, endorsements and workers' comp rules.
Asena Capital Insurance Services compares multiple markets for Long Beach contractors and requests additional insured endorsements for you when a contract calls for them. Call (858) 925-9555 or request a quote — only your name, phone and email are required. CA License #6008596.
39 active C-39 licenses have a business address in Long Beach (CSLB, September 2026); 92% carry workers' comp and 0% are filed exempt.
No. CSLB does not allow C-39 roofing licenses to file a workers' comp exemption — every active C-39 license must have workers' comp (or a valid Certification of Self-Insurance) on file, even with no employees. A license without one can be suspended.
