Insurance Coverage for Sump Pump Failure

7/22/2019 (Permalink)

Did you know that insurance coverage for a sump pump failure is not always written into an insurance plan? Therefore, you could get left paying for the damage caused from a sump pump failure in your home out of pocket. When a sump pump fails, the damage can be very costly. Especially if the area of the home is a finished area. 

We recommend that you contact your insurance company to ensure that you would be covered if your sump pump fails during a storm or heavy snow melt. When you get coverage, think about the cost of the items structural and personal that could potentially get damaged and make sure the coverage would be enough if it all were to be damaged.
