So, What Is A Flood?

A common theme we see in claims from customers is a misunderstanding of what a qualifying flood event is. We understand the confusion; when a customer sees water, they probably think, “FLOOD!” right away. A key difference is where that water is coming from. Generally speaking, a qualifying flood event is what we call “ground up” rising water.

Here are some events that typically fall into either homeowners or flood policy:

Event Which Policy?
Pipe bursts Homeowners
Storm surge pushes water into your home Flood
Toilet overflows Homeowners
Flash flood washes out your foundation Flood
Hot water heater leaks Homeowners
River overflows into your home Flood

 

Can Homeowners Insurance Cover Water Damage? – Sonora CA



Good morning everyone. I hope you’re enjoying the beautiful sunshine we’ve had the last few days. I know we have, I’ll call it, suffered, in California through a lot of rain and snow, which we desperately need, I know. But I wanted to just talk about insurance coverage for excess water and flood. We’ve had a lot of claims coming in because of the water. There’s just so much water. But I wanted to let everyone know that those claims in general are not covered. We have a specialized policy for flood insurance that is not covered on a normal homeowner’s policy. You have to buy a specific policy to cover excess water, which is called a flood policy, and it’s run by the National Flood through the federal government.
If you have any more questions about flood insurance in particular, please give our office a call. It does have a 30-day waiting period to get a flood policy, so you can’t wait until we get more rain, unfortunately, to look into a policy like that. So give us a call if you have had problems with that so we can make sure that you’re completely covered. Thanks, and have a great day.

10K, 2 Miles, and Kids run on May 14th, 2022

To honor Luc’s memory and legacy, we should all “Live Like Luc”.

Luc was a kind-hearted, ambitious, helpful, adventurous, loving, and dedicated husband, friend, son, brother, pilot, and soon-to-be father. He gave 100% in every aspect of life.

What better way to remember him than to get out there and do the same. Do something kind for others, help someone in need, tell your wife every day that you love her, call that friend you keep meaning to call, etc. Learn a new skill, take a climbing class, pick up photography, learn to kayak, take a hike, plan a trip to somewhere you’ve never been, go scuba diving, go on a run, go sky diving, get outdoors and enjoy nature.

Live life to the fullest, give of yourself to others and his memory will live on in each of us forever!!
Live like Luc!!!
