What earthquake insurance covers
Standard homeowners, condo and renters policies exclude earthquake damage. A separate earthquake policy or endorsement fills that gap.
- Dwelling - Repairs or rebuilds your home's structure, including the foundation, walls, roof and attached fixtures.
- Other structures - Detached garages, sheds, fences and retaining walls on your property.
- Personal property - Furniture, electronics, clothing and other belongings damaged by shaking.
- Loss of use - Hotel, rent, meals and other added living costs while your home is being repaired.
- Building code upgrades - Extra cost to rebuild to current seismic codes after a covered loss.
- Emergency repairs - Bracing and debris removal to prevent further damage right after a quake.
Deductibles: earthquake deductibles are a percentage of your dwelling limit (typically 5% to 25%) rather than a flat dollar amount.
Not covered: damage from flood, tsunami or fire is usually covered under other policies, and earth movement that is not caused by an earthquake (such as settling) is excluded. California homeowners may also compare California Earthquake Authority (CEA) options, and we can quote private coverage alongside or in excess of CEA limits.
