The Art of Adjusting® Podcast

In this episode of The Art of Adjusting® Podcast, Chantal Roberts and William Auten dive deep into the complexities surrounding water damage, storm surges, and their implications on insurance policies. They shed light on the critical role of flood-certified adjusters and the nuanced limitations within flood policies, especially in the context of high-value homes in flood-prone areas. The discussion also covers the often-ambiguous policy language, spotlighting specific challenges such as sump pump failure and its coverage issues.

Understanding the complexities of flood insurance is very important for both flood adjusters, and non-flood adjusters, and to aid in this endeavor, we recommend visiting the FEMA Flood Map Service Center for valuable resources and information.
