FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does my homeowners policy cover storm and hail damage?
In most cases, yes — wind and hail are standard covered perils on Alabama homeowners policies. However, deductibles for wind/hail claims are sometimes separate from your standard deductible. We'll review your declarations page line by line so you know exactly what you have before a storm hits.
Is flood damage covered by homeowners insurance?
No. Standard homeowners policies in Alabama (and everywhere) exclude flood damage. Flood coverage has to be purchased separately through the NFIP or a private flood carrier. If your home is anywhere near a creek, low-lying area, or storm-drain pinch point, ask us about a flood quote.
How much homeowners insurance do I actually need?
Enough to fully rebuild your home at today's construction prices — not what you paid for it, and not the tax assessment. Building costs in Alabama have moved a lot in recent years, and underinsuring is one of the most common mistakes we see. We rebuild dwelling limits from current cost-to-build numbers, not stale figures.
