If you have flood damage and have purchased a separate flood policy, you may report that claim to us and we will contact the National Flood Insruance Program on your behalf. While Liberty Mutual may assist you with the purchasing of a flood policy or help with the filing of a flood claim, we do not service the policy or adjust the flood claim.

Insurance policies do not cover any damage caused by floods. If you think flooding is a possibility in your area, you should consider purchasing special flood insurance from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) of the U.S. Government. Insurance companies do not underwrite flood insurance and the NFIP is the primary way to protect your property from the devastation of floods.

Generally, you cannot be evicted if you have a written lease and your apartment was only "partially" damaged. Read your lease to see if it allows your landlord to evict for "partial" destruction. Total" destruction by flood or fire generally ends the lease and allows your landlord to evict. If you have an oral month-to-month lease, your landlord may cancel your lease by giving you 10 days notice before the end of the rental month.

When you realize that your property is flooding, find the water source and turn it off, call a plumber to fix the water leak, and then call SteamMaster as soon as possible to start the cleanup and dry down process.

It depends on how badly your apartment was damaged. The law says that a tenant can cancel a lease if the apartment was partially or totally "destroyed." Damage requiring only minor or short-term repairs (such as replacing the carpet) generally would not give you the right to cancel your lease. Whether you can cancel your lease depends on the individual facts of your case. You should get legal advice from a lawyer.

A Homeowners policy may cover fire, tornado or even earthquake damage. But seldom does it cover damage from flooding - nature's most common natural disaster.

Available in participating communities through the National Flood Insurance Program, federal flood insurance provides monetary protection against direct physical loss by or from a flood to an insured property. Furthermore, as a means of recovering from the aftereffects of flooding, it is a more dependable alternative to federal disaster assistance, which is only available during a Presidentially declared disaster and must be repaid as an interest-bearing loan.

Most "all risk" business insurance policies cover damage caused by wind and wind-driven rain. Those policies generally exclude damage caused by flood. Insurers may argue that properties damaged by wind, but later flooded, are not covered or are only partially covered.

Adjusters are very well trained to make these determinations. If the past is a predictor of the future we will see that the vast majority of claims are settled over the coming months. While we’ll always have claim disputes, there are processes in place to resolve the disputes. There is arbitration and mediation, which can resolve many of the disputes. There should be enough adjusters. In Florida there were four storms back to back. There were adjusters in every part of the state.

Flood zones are land areas identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Each flood zone describes that land area in terms of its risk of flooding. Everyone lives in a flood zone - it's just a question of whether you live in a low, moderate or high risk area.

Dams can stop regular annual floods but often fail to hold back exceptionally large floods. Because they give people a false sense of security, dams can lead to increased development of floodplains. When large floods do occur, damages caused are often greater than they would have been otherwise. A "soft path" to flood management would better prepare us to adapt to and work with the forces of nature

Before a community is eligible for disaster assistance, it must be declared a federal disaster area. Federal disaster assistance declarations are issued in less than 50% of flooding incidents. The premium for an NFIP policy, averaging a little more than $350 a year, is less expensive than interest on federal disaster loans. Furthermore, if you are uninsured and receive federal disaster assistance after a flood, you must purchase flood insurance to remain eligible for future disaster relief.

Generally speaking, wind damage is covered under a homeowners insurance policy and flood damage is covered under a flood insurance policy issued by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). It is not unusual for flooding to accompany a hurricane. The insurance industry has many years of experience settling claims with different causes of loss. Each claim will be evaluated on a case by case basis.
