Am I Covered for Flood Damage?
Generally speaking, homeowner's property policies do NOT cover flood claims. Instead, you must purchase a specific flood damage policy to be covered from flood damage cleanup & water removal at your home. Coverage at your business depends on what type of business policy you select. Some examples of situations where a flood damage policy may pay dividends include:
- Heavy rain seeps into your basement or crawlspace because the soil can’t absorb the water quickly enough.
- Rising water from a river or lake overflows floods your property.
- A flash flood rolls downhill and enters your property.
Flood Damage vs. Water Damage
The word “rising” is the key to distinguishing water damage from flood damage. A broken pipe or leaky appliance connection often causes rising water. Flood damage, on the other hand, tends to be caused by:
- Outside water overflowing lakes or rivers & entering your home
- Flash floods that bring outside water into your home
- Clogged drains that bring outside water into your home
