Water Damage Insurance Coverage

  • Water Damage Coverage: Most homeowners insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage such as burst pipes, plumbing failures, or storm damage. However, they may exclude gradual damage like slow leaks or neglect-related issues. Flood damage is typically not covered under standard policies and requires separate flood insurance.
