Fort Myers, Cape Coral & North Port Flood Insurance
Flood damage can be devastating for any family, and most flood losses are not covered by your standard home insurance policy. Also, don't rely on the federal government to assist you in the event of a massive flood situation.
Your standard Florida flood insurance policy would apply to homes, condos, mobile homes, businesses and rentals that are in flood zone areas. Typically, your flood insurance policy is dependent on your flood zone risk.
We have multiple options for your flood insurance in Florida:
- Building, contents, replacement cost coverages
- Different coverage options available
- Standard flood insurance coverage
- Optional excess flood coverage
- Affordable rates
Flood coverage Insurance in Fort Myers, Cape Coral & North Port
Building coverage is designed to protect the structure of your home or business and cover appliances and other property items that are considered part of your property including air conditioners, dishwashers and cabinets. You will also want to consider coverage for your personal property as well, such as furniture and clothing.
Your Home Insurance Policy Doesn’t Cover Floods
It’s a common myth that your home insurance policy covers floods, but this just isn’t true. Flood insurance is administered through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Fort Myers, Florida, participates in the NFIP, and as an independent agency we can help you get a FREE quote for flood insurance.
If you live in a Special Flood Hazard Area, then flood insurance is mandatory. The entire city of Fort Myers is located within one of these hazard areas, so you may be required to carry flood insurance if you live within the city limits.
Floods can occur anywhere, even in areas not designated as high risk. The NFIP defines a flood as “a general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of two or more acres of normally dry land area or of two or more properties” with water.
As a local business in Fort Myers, we’ve witnessed much of the damage floods can cause to homes and businesses.
