Learn MoreWhat we look after in Newport Beach
Balboa Island, Balboa Peninsula and Lido Isle hold small-lot cottages and rebuilt luxury houses, and Newport Coast adds large hillside estates. A cottage flue and an estate one share almost nothing but the salt. We check each on its own terms, 40 miles from Silver Lake, by appointment. Harbor and open ocean bring marine layer and cool summers, so metal stays damp longer than it does inland. The 1933 quake's epicenter lay just offshore, and the Newport Coast hills border wildland, so old flues and hillside screens both get attention.
The Houses
Around Newport Beach the stock runs to small-lot cottages on the islands and the peninsula, big rebuilt houses, and Newport Coast estates.
Before the First Fire
On the water, check metal for rust before anything else, and on Newport Coast, confirm your ember screen too.
Care of the Room
Island cottages are small and estates are large, so covers get sized to fit and the vacuum runs throughout.
Close By
Newport Beach stops sometimes fall alongside Costa Mesa, Balboa Island, Irvine.
