Q5: How does Conecuh River flooding affect homeowners insurance?
A5: Properties near the Conecuh River and Pea River face elevated flood risks during heavy rainfall and tropical systems. Standard homeowners policies don't cover flood damage, making separate flood insurance essential for riverside properties. We analyze FEMA flood maps for your specific address to determine risk levels and coverage needs in flood-prone areas of Pike County.
Q6: Does hurricane risk from the Gulf affect Troy insurance rates?
A6: Troy's location in the Wiregrass region means occasional hurricane impacts from Gulf storms. While inland, the area can experience heavy winds and flooding from systems like Sally and Ivan. Comprehensive coverage protects against wind damage and falling trees, with separate flood insurance recommended for properties in low-lying areas.
