Insurance Reconstruction questions, answered
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage?
Generally yes for sudden and accidental damage — a burst pipe, an appliance line that let go, storm water through a roof the wind opened. Generally no for gradual seepage, long-term leaks, poor maintenance, or groundwater and flooding, which need a separate flood policy. Sewer and sump backup is only covered if you carry that rider. We document the cause with photos and moisture readings from day one and write our scope to match the adjuster's, which is what keeps a claim from stalling.
