Coverage depends on your policy and the cause of the water. A sudden pipe or appliance leak may be covered by homeowners insurance, subject to exclusions, limits, and deductibles. Most homeowners policies do not cover rising floodwater; flood coverage may come from the NFIP, a private policy, or an endorsement. Document the source of the water and ask your insurer which policy applies. See Florida Department of Financial Services and the National Flood Insurance Program.

Look up your address on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center; if you are in or near a mapped zone, keep flood coverage in force and a restoration contractor's number saved before a storm ever arrives.

Knowing the rules helps you spot when an insurer is failing to meet its obligations.
