JOPLIN, Mo. — Many people are dealing with issues after the recent storms – and insurance agents are trying to help.
Allstate agency owner Tyler Linn says during springtime, or what some consider “storm season”, the most common claims are wind damage and hail damage to homes and cars.
With the recent storms in our area, many are dealing with flooding and wind damage.
Linn says flood damage is typically not covered by homeowners’ or renters’ policies, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get coverage.
“Homeowners and rent owners both have options through the National Flood Insurance Program. And so the best thing to do is contact an agent. If you contact an Allstate agent we are able to help them and most agents can help set up policies through the National Flood Insurance Program. They can meet homeowners’ or renters’ needs,” said Tyler Linn, Allstate Agency owner.
Storms often happen fast, so check with your carrier if you have any questions on your coverage.
