In short
Water damage restoration in Newport Beach means drying and repairing homes hit by plumbing leaks, sewer backups and, in low harbor areas, tidal and storm flooding. An independent contractor inspects, extracts water, dries the structure and documents it for insurance.
The city's June 2026 king tide advisory lists the neighborhoods most likely to flood: Newport Island, Balboa Island, the Finley Tract, Lido Village, Balboa Village, Lafayette Avenue, the Peninsula and parts of the Marcus, River and Lake Avenue area. Crews install flood-protection gap boards on Balboa Island, run pumps and place sandbags during those tides.
The city's hazard mitigation plan explains that storm drains in low areas have valves city crews close before high tides: some when tides are forecast above 5.2 feet, and all 86 of them above 7 feet. In January 2005, a storm surge on a tide near 7 feet flooded roads, businesses and homes, and in December 2012 high tides flooded streets along Marcus Avenue and near Newport Boulevard and 26th Street, with some homes taking on nearly a foot of water.
On July 3, 2020, high tide and waves around 10 feet sent water about two feet deep across roughly three blocks of the Balboa Peninsula near the Wedge, local news reported.
The same plan states that all of Balboa Island lies in the FEMA floodway, and that FEMA recorded 263 flood claims from Newport Beach residents between 1977 and 2010. The city's coastal plan lists West Newport, the Lido Peninsula, Balboa Peninsula, Balboa Island, Little Balboa Island, Collins Island and Mariners' Mile among its low-lying areas.
Newport Beach's median year built is 1978, per Census data, but about 3,500 units predate 1950, and roughly 17 percent of all units are attached single-family homes that share walls.
Water in your home right now? Call and get connected to an independent restoration contractor who covers your street.
The contractor follows the IICRC S500 sequence: inspect and map moisture with meters, extract standing water, remove materials that cannot be dried, then run air movers and dehumidifiers while logging readings until the structure reaches dry targets. The crew the contractor sends cleans, sanitizes and leaves a photo and moisture record for your insurer. Flooding from the harbor or the street is Category 3 water, which means porous materials like carpet, pad and the lower part of drywall walls are usually removed rather than dried in place.
The service area includes Balboa Island and Little Balboa Island, the Balboa Peninsula and Balboa Village, Lido Isle, Newport Island, West Newport and Newport Shores, Newport Heights, Westcliff, Mariners' Mile, the Newport Center and Eastbluff areas near the Back Bay, and Newport Coast.

Standard homeowners policies generally exclude flood, including tidal flooding. That damage is covered only by a separate flood policy. A burst pipe inside the house is a different claim and is often covered.
