Flood damage can devastate a property, and is generally one of the most costly damage types a property owner will face. A flood is loosely defined as “an excess of rising water on land that is normally dry.” The most common causes of flood that can damage a property include:
Heavy rains
Thawing snow
Storm Surges
Flash flooding
Broken Levees
Overflowing Rivers
Although the causes are different, flood damage essentially results in water damage, which is covered on our water damage claim page. Flood damage can result in many thousands of dollars in losses for a property owner, so it’s important to take action immediately to begin the recovery process.
