MYTH: If a hurricane causes the damage, homeowners insurance automatically covers everything.
REALITY: Different causes of damage can involve different types of coverage.
Wind damage and flooding, for example, are not necessarily handled the same way. Flood insurance is generally separate from a standard homeowners policy.
The time to understand those differences is before you need to file a claim.
Start with a quick conversation.

“I have insurance. I just want to know what I’m actually covered for.”
That is a reasonable question, especially during hurricane season.
Not knowing what happens after wind, water or storm damage can create real stress. Reviewing your coverage before severe weather develops can bring clarity, confidence and the relief of knowing where you stand.
You do not have to figure it out during an emergency.
Talk through your options.
