Those who live in Maryland know that there are many worries about hurricane damage. Damage from a hurricane can be expensive and make a major impact on you and your family. Luckily, many insurance options allow you to protect the investment you have in your home from these terrors in nature. If you are not overly knowledgeable about insurance, you may be a bit confused about how these hurricane claims work. Learn a bit more about these hurricane claims and you can better tailor your insurance to fit your needs.
The first thing to remember is that hurricane coverage is a part of your homeowner’s policy. For the most part, you do not have separate hurricane insurance, it is a rider on your normal insurance. That means that you go about making the insurance claim just like you would any other claim. You will contact your insurance company and they will send an adjuster out to your home to take a look at the damage and help decide what you should receive (if anything) for a payout.
The claims process is actually simpler than most people think. This is even more so the case if you work with an independent agent. Working directly with an agent allows you to have someone on your side that will make certain you are making the decisions that benefit you and your family. An agent can also help you put together a full package of insurance including homeowner’s, auto, workers compensation, life insurance and anything else you may need to feel protected.
If you do not already have an independent agent on your side, give us a call today. We will be happy to look over your coverage and explain the ins and outs of hurricane insurance and other options for you and your family.
