Flood Insurance in
Florida
Standard homeowners policies exclude flood damage. In Florida's mandatory zones, securing the right coverage isn't just a precaution -- it's a requirement for financial stability.
The Critical Gap in
Traditional Coverage
Many homeowners in Florida are surprised to learn that a single inch of water can cause over $25,000 in damage. A standard homeowners policy covers water damage from a burst pipe, but never from rising surface water.
Our Flood Insurance plans specifically cover physical losses caused by flooding, including storm surges, heavy rainfall, and tidal overflows -- the very elements that define life on the coast.

The Elevation Factor
Understanding FEMA zones A, AE, X, and V is critical. While V-zones carry highest risk near open water, inland flooding during tropical storms is a reality for all Florida residents.
30-Day Rule
Don't wait for a named storm. Policies typically require 30 days to become active.
Zone V
Velocity zones. High risk areas with wave action. Specific construction requirements apply.
Mandatory Requirements
If you have a federally backed mortgage and live in a high-risk zone (A or V), your lender requires flood insurance. We help you meet these requirements with optimal pricing.
