Essential Insurance Tips for Hurricane Season
· Texas Border Business
Hurricane season began on June 1, prompting residents to review their insurance coverage to ensure adequate protection post-storm. Key coverages to consider include wind insurance, as many Gulf Coast home policies do not cover wind and hail damage. Flood insurance is also crucial, as standard home policies typically exclude flood damage and have a 30-day waiting period. Additionally, comprehensive auto coverage can protect against various damages. Homeowners should know their deductibles, keep important contact numbers handy, check their roofs and windows, and create a home inventory. For assistance, the Texas Department of Insurance offers a help line at 800-252-3439.
