Water Damage - What's Covered?
5/14/2018 (Permalink)
Over the past several years, water damage claims have risen to become the 2nd largest most frequent insurance claims. Water damage can be costly and difficult for property owners and renters to recover from. Many people assume their insurance policy will cover water damage but there are different types of water damage, which may or may not be included in a standard insurance policy. Some of the coverage depends on the source and the amount of your coverage. Several different types are:
- Sudden or accidental discharge
- Sewer backup or water backup
- Overflow
- Flood
What ever the case may be or the coverage you may have, it is important to contact your insurance agent or broker to find out what your policy does and does not cover. Don't wait until the damage is already done. Be prepared and let SERVPRO of Lockport/Lemont/Homer Glen make your water damage "Like it never even happened." Call 708-301-4200.
