What is flood insurance and why do I need it?

Question 4

How does NFIP differ from private flood insurance?

The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is government-backed and offers standard coverage limits and pricing.

At 1st Direct Insurance, we’ll help you choose the best fit for your property and budget, ensuring you get the most comprehensive coverage. We work with both NFIP and top private flood insurance carriers to find the best coverage at the best price.

Flood insurance costs depend on factors like your location, flood zone, coverage limits, and whether the property is residential or commercial. Contact us for a custom quote.

Question 6

What is covered under flood insurance?

Accepted Answer

Flood insurance typically covers structural damage to your home or building, electrical and plumbing systems, furnaces, water heaters, major appliances, foundation and crawlspaces, and personal property (with contents coverage). Coverage limits vary, and certain exclusions may apply. Our team will guide you through all the details to ensure you have the right coverage.

Question 7

How can I find out if I’m in a flood zone?

Accepted Answer

You can find out if you’re in a flood zone by using FEMA’s Flood Map Service Center or by contacting us. Our agents can help you determine your flood risk and the type of coverage you may need. We also monitor flood map changes to keep you informed about any updates.
