Earthquake Insurance

Earthquake Insurance

Earthquakes are sudden, unpredictable, and can cause significant damage to your home and property. While standard homeowners insurance typically covers many natural disasters, it often does not include coverage for earthquakes. At O'Grady Insurance, we offer specialized earthquake insurance policies designed to protect your home, belongings, and financial well-being in the event of an earthquake. With our comprehensive coverage, you can have peace of mind knowing that your home is protected against the devastating effects of a quake.

What we offer

Structural Damage Coverage

Earthquakes can cause severe structural damage to your home, from cracked foundations to collapsed walls. Our earthquake insurance provides coverage for the repair or rebuilding of your home’s structure, ensuring that you have the financial support needed to restore your property after an earthquake. This coverage includes everything from the foundation and walls to the roof and attached structures.

Personal Property Protection

Your personal belongings are just as vulnerable to damage during an earthquake. Our earthquake insurance policies include personal property protection, covering the cost to repair or replace your possessions, including furniture, electronics, appliances, and other valuable items. This ensures that your home can be restored both inside and out after a quake.

What we offer

Additional Living Expenses

If your home is severely damaged by an earthquake and becomes uninhabitable, you’ll need somewhere to stay while repairs are made. Our earthquake insurance includes coverage for additional living expenses (ALE), which helps cover the cost of temporary housing, meals, and other necessary expenses while your home is being restored. This coverage ensures that your lifestyle is maintained even during a difficult time.

Debris Removal and Cleanup

After an earthquake, the cleanup process can be extensive and costly. Our earthquake insurance policies provide coverage for debris removal and cleanup, helping you clear away rubble and make your property safe again. This coverage includes the removal of fallen trees, collapsed structures, and other debris that may pose a hazard.

What we offer

Deductible Flexibility

We offer flexible deductible options, allowing you to choose the level of out-of-pocket expense that best suits your financial situation. Whether you prefer a higher deductible to lower your premium or a lower deductible for more immediate coverage, our agents can help you select the right option.

Additional Benefits

Coverage for Secondary Homes and Rental Properties

If you own a secondary home or rental property, it’s equally important to protect these investments from earthquake damage. We offer earthquake insurance for secondary homes and rental properties, providing the same comprehensive coverage to ensure all your properties are safeguarded.

Affordable Rates

While earthquake insurance provides essential protection, it doesn’t have to be expensive. We work with top-rated insurance providers to offer competitive rates that make earthquake coverage affordable for homeowners. Our goal is to provide you with the best possible protection at a price that fits your budget.
