Flood Causes and Management
Floods are the most frequent and unexpected hazard that could happen at any time or anywhere in both residential and commercial areas. The flood can cause significant and extensive water damage to homes and any property. Based on our years of experience most floods are caused by clogged drains or sewer back-ups, overflow from rivers or lakes, and seepage through a home’s foundation or window wells, …. they become a disaster if not properly and professionally dealt with. To reduce the risk of further water damage in your home or any property, prevention, and protection will be a wise thing to do so.
Many insurance companies provide some form of protection from water damage. There is different insurance coverage for flood and water damage issues, based on where you live and so many other things.
Sewage backup
With this option, coverage is provided for damage caused by water that escaped from a municipal sewer system or private septic tank on your property. This can happen when, for example, draining systems are clogged and water flow is blocked, backing up into the home. This add-on can also provide coverage if you have a sump pump that malfunctions.
Enhanced Water Damage
This endorsement combines coverage for sewer backup with overland or groundwater accumulation that can put a home at risk. Adding this coverage to your home policy can provide insurance for water damage caused by a sudden flood from a river, stream, lake, heavy rainfall, or when ground and surface water enters your home. The package also includes coverage for repairing broken service lines to your home, including water, sewer, gas, electricity, cable, and phone lines.
Consider exploring what other steps you can take to protect your home. For example, many modern security systems can be equipped with special sensors that can detect water in your house and provide a warning. Having these types of sensors may qualify you for a discount on your home insurance policy.
Some water damages inside the home are caused by malfunctioning appliances, bathroom overflow, broken pipe issues, or simply by leaking, you should check inside and outside the home for any possible flood-causing issues and fix it as soon as possible.
Reducing the risk of water entering your home is still the best way to help ensure your valued and treasured items remain safe from water damage. However, if water does enter your home, having the right coverage in your home insurance policy can help ensure you have the resources to repair any damage as quickly as possible.
Sometimes, regardless of every effort you make, you still get minor or major water damage inside your property. In this case, the most important step to take is to professionally take care of the water-damaged areas, to prevent secondary water damage and mold formation and save.
