Garage door, Dryer and Flood Insurance
My house was flooded thanks to the big storm in the NYC area. A flood
insurance adjuster will come to my house next week. I've read an article about what is covered and what is not. However, it is not clear whether my garage door (attached garage) & laundry room dryer are covered. FYI, I have dwelling coverage only. |

Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I do have flood insurance that covers my property, not my personal belongings. |

We can't answer that, since we can't see your policy from here. You have to read it to see what is covered, or ask your insurance agent. Typically nothing is covered but structural damage to the house, but yours might not be typical. |
