Flood Insurance in Oakwood Hills, IL
Flooding can happen anywhere, even in areas not usually considered high-risk. At Smith & Associates Inc, we understand the importance of homeowners insuring their properties against flood damage. Our team is here to help you understand your flood insurance options and secure the right coverage for your needs.
Why Does a Separate Coverage Matter? 
Standard homeowners insurance policies typically do not cover flood damage. With varied weather patterns and proximity to rivers and lakes, many communities face a real risk of flooding.
Flood insurance can provide essential financial protection, helping you recover from losses caused by rising water, heavy rains or rapid snowmelt.
Who Needs Flood Insurance?
This policy is especially important for:
- Homeowners and property owners in flood-prone areas, as identified by FEMA flood maps
- Residents with mortgage lenders who require flood coverage as a loan condition
- Anyone seeking coverage against unpredictable weather events
What Does a Policy Cover?
Flood insurance can help cover:
- Structural damage to your home or building
- Essential systems like electrical, plumbing and HVAC
- Appliances, flooring, and built-in cabinetry
- Personal belongings, such as furniture and clothing (with certain policies)
Coverage options and limits may vary. Consult with your broker to learn more.
