Water Backup Coverage?

Water Backup Coverage?

Water Backup Coverage is an option that you can add on to your insurance policy that protects you from the potentially costly repairs of water damage due to sump pump failure or drain backups.

Sump pumps are designed to remove water that accumulates around your home’s foundation. If the system fails or power goes out, overflow may occur. Most insurance policies do not have this as a covered loss without the added protection of Water Backup Coverage. Water backup coverage will help cover the cost of the water damages from an unexpected backup and it may also help cover the cost in replacing furniture and other belongings lost.

Your home or businesses is the largest purchase you will make in a lifetime for most people. Are you covered properly in case of a disaster? Over the last year we have seen an influx in water damages due to Sump Pump failures and we want to make sure our customers are educated when it comes to this topic.
