Homeowners insurance policies typically exclude damaged caused by flooding. Residents of flood prone areas should obtain a separate flood insurance policy, otherwise they will have to pay for damage restoration out of pocket or obtain a relief through a federal program. Here are some types of assistance that may be available.
Grants for clean up restoration
A homeowner may want to apply for a grant to fund the restoration. Grants can be used for repairing structural damage or replacing other losses.
Repair and replacement assistance
If the location of your home is declared a federal disaster area, you may be eligible for a one time payment for repair and replacement assistance. This option will not cover the costs of flood damage, and is intended to supplement an insurance policy.
