Water Back-up Problems?

This MI resident recently realized he needed some type of insurance to cover the flood damage in his basement. He is not in a flood zone so he was not eligible to buy flood insurance, but after contacting his insurance agent he was able to get water back-up coverage. Water back-up coverage will cover water seepage in your home due to heavy rains, backed up drains, or broken sump pumps. You can contact your insurance agent to get more information on water back-up coverage. If you want to find out more about obtaining flood insurance from the National Flood Insurance Program or want to see if you are in a flood zone you can find the link on this Government Sponsored Plans Page.
