Coverage not Provided by your Homeowner’s Insurance. Standard homeowner’s insurance does not provide coverage for flood damage. Unfortunately, many Americans mistakenly believe that flood damage is covered by their homeowners policy.

These forms of aid are not reliable — It is not guaranteed that they will be offered after every flood. Be sure that you have reliable protection in the case of a flood with proper coverage.
