What weather events are covered with home insurance?

Posted on by admin

Weather is something that Florida residents know a lot about. While Florida is known as the sunshine state, there is a lot more to the weather across the state than just the rays of the sun. On any given day you can see two, three or even more weather events and it makes it a very interesting place to live and buy a home. When you live in a state with variable weather it is important that when purchasing home insurance you know exactly which weather events are covered by your home insurance. The experienced team at Kingdon Tree Insurance Group in Tallahassee, FL can help you to get that knowledge. 

Hurricanes-Hurricanes are a fact of life in Florida, sometimes it seems on a yearly basis.  In Florida, the law requires that insurance policies include damage caused by hurricanes. However, the deductible may be different for the hurricane damage than for the rest of the home policy. 

Tornados-Florida is also prone to have tornados touch down and cause massive amounts of damage, this damage is included in a typical home insurance policy. 

Floods-Florida has a massive coastline and is very flat making it particularly prone to flooding. Floods caused by weather events are not covered on home insurance. It is offered by the federal government through the National Flood Insurance Program. 

Hail-While hail is not a common event, it does happen and if it does, the damage is covered on a typical home policy.
