Today’s weather is miserable: gale winds, inches of rain, and flooded streets caused by drains clogged with fallen leaves.<\/p>\n

Our clients’\u00a0most common claim call on days like this sounds something like this:<\/p>\n

“We lost power, and my sump pump didn’t work. Water backed up through the drain in my basement, and flooded it.”<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sadly, Maine homeowners insurance<\/a> doesn’t cover water backup, unless you purchase extra coverage. The available coverage and cost varies from insurer to insurer, but is commonly about $75 a year for $5,000 in coverage.

Of course, if you have a finished basement, you will want to ask about higher limits of water backup insurance.
