I’m glad you haven’t experienced any issues with flooding so far! Your Progressive homeowners insurance may cover water damage in your home, but it has to be a named peril
in your policy. For example, if your policy covers a pipe bursting in your home and that results in water damage, you’d be covered.
However, if the cause of water damage is flooding
from a water source outside your home, this is rarely covered by a standard homeowners insurance policy. You’d likely need separate flood insurance to be covered in this case. Since you live in a flood zone, it’s a good idea to seek out flood insurance options sooner than later in case a flood occurs. If your home faces water damage, you want to make sure you can rely on your insurance policy to help you out.
