Flooding Can Happen Anywhere

Protect Your Property with Flood Insurance

Floods are one of the most common natural hazards in the United States— and Daytona Beach is no exception. Even if your property has never flooded before, it’s still at risk. Heavy rain, storm surge and overwhelmed drainage systems can all lead to flooding.

Standard homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage. If you don’t have flood insurance, talk to your insurance provider today. Because Daytona Beach participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP): You can purchase affordable, federally backed flood insurance.

QUICK TIP: Take photos of your property and valuables before a storm. Documenting your personal items can help support your flood insurance claim and speed up the recovery process.
