 GET FLOOD INSURANCE

flooded homeDespite popular belief, flood damage is not covered under usual property or home dwelling insurance. Floods are becoming increasingly frequent and dangerous throughout the southern states, especially in cities along the coast. 

Protecting your home may begin with a basic homeowners insurance policy, but it shouldn’t stop there. Harrell Insurance Agency understands the dangers floods pose to homeowners and work with a variety of insurance carriers to match flood insurance policies with clients.

 

Is Flood Insurance Required?

In certain areas of South Carolina, flood insurance is legally required. These areas are considered high risk for floods. Make sure to check with your area about whether or not flood insurance is required. Even if flood insurance is not legally mandated for your area, this coverage is crucial for southern states especially. Every year, floods cause thousands of dollars’ worth of damage for homeowners and businesses. Without coverage, you could face paying for repairs out of pocket.

 

What Does Flood Insurance Cover?

Flood insurance covers:

  • Dwelling

  • Personal Possessions

This only covers dangers caused directly by floods. It does not cover sewage issues unless those issues are directly caused by a flood. The same applies to mold. Basic flood insurance policies have limited coverage on valuable items such as furs, art, jewelry and electronics, though you can purchase additional insurance to cover these items.
