Flood insurance

Floods

Most homeowners, renters and business policies do not cover flood damage. However, you can buy flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and some private insurers.

Buying flood insurance

Flood insurance can be purchased through an agent.

Check with your current agent. If they do not sell it, call the national flood insurance program at 877-336-2627 (toll-free) or visit floodsmart.gov/flood-insurance/providers to find an agent in your area.
