Can Tropical Storm Isaias affect Crawfordville without a watch?
Yes. Tropical Storm and Storm Surge Watches cover the Wakulla coast just south of town, and wind and rain can reach inland. If Isaias damages your property, American Financial Claims can review the claim for free.
Does my policy pay for tree removal in Crawfordville?
Many policies pay to remove a tree that damages a covered structure or blocks a driveway, up to a limit. A tree that falls without hitting anything may not be covered.
I have a second home at Shell Point. What should I know?
Coastal Wakulla properties face surge, which is a flood-policy issue. Document wind and water damage separately.
Is flooding from heavy rain covered?
Rising water from heavy rain is usually a flood-policy claim. Water that enters through a storm-damaged roof can be a homeowners claim.
