Understanding what your home and vehicle insurance cover during the monsoon season is crucial to avoid costly repairs due to rain-related damages like waterlogging, flooding, roof leaks, and electrical damage.
Home insurance typically covers structural damage, electrical equipment, and furniture affected by heavy rainfall, while vehicle insurance can help with engine damage, accidental damage, and damage from falling objects.
However, pre-existing issues, negligence, and lack of add-on covers may limit the coverage provided by insurance policies for both home and vehicles during monsoon damage.
To stay protected, ensure you have the right add-ons in your policies, review them annually, check for flood/storm damage coverage, and take preventive measures like clearing drains and parking in safe areas.
