Flood insurance policies are administered by your insurance company and paid by the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). There are strict rules set by the NFIP that must be followed in order to receive payments for your claims. Must notably, a Proof of Loss detailing the amount of your claim is required typically within 30 days of the loss itself.
Many problems can cause under payment of your claim by your flood insurance company. Lowball estimates from insurance company adjusters and contractors with whom they have relationships, and out-of-state, inexperienced or unreliable contractors without proper insurance of their own many times add to under payment for your flood claim. If the flood made pre-existing damage worse, do not let the insurance company tell you that you’re not covered for the necessary repairs.
