WATERtight Water Damage Insurance

With storms becoming increasingly frequent and severe, the likelihood of water damage becoming a threat to your home and personal belongings is higher than ever. Damage caused by water is now more common than fire.

Most standard policies include protection against some forms of water damage, but they might not shield you from the full extent of damage caused by various types of flooding, leaks or backups. You may not even realize the need for extra coverage until it’s too late. Unica’s WATERtight protection provides simplified, comprehensive coverage and peace of mind through our trusted best-in-class Claims service.

A comprehensive total solution for water damage insurance.

WATERtight protection is a single add-on solution that provides coverage for damage caused by Flood, Ground Water, Surface Water, and Sewer Backup. It also extends coverage from the additional living expenses in the event of a mass evacuation or if access to your residence is prohibited due to flooding.

  • Sewer Backup, Sump Pump and Septic System

    The backing up of water into your home from a sewer, sump pump or septic system.

  • Overland Flood

    The overflow of any body of fresh water or watercourse, whether natural or man-made.

  • Surface Water

    Fresh water or rain naturally spreading over the surface of typically dry ground, not resulting from a flood.

  • Ground Water

    Water found beneath the ground’s surface, such as in soil, or the increase of the water table level, including water wells, underground streams, and water that filters through the ground.

Flexibility to tailor coverage to your needs.

WATERtight protection is available on Homeowner, Condo, Seasonal Broad, Tenant, and Rental policies.

Your WATERtight deductible can be increased separately from your policy deductible, providing you with more ways to save on premiums.
Sub-limits of coverage are available from $5,000.
When paired with a LIVEasy® Homeowners policy, you have the choice to either repair or rebuild your home on the same location or rebuild elsewhere.

Transparent.
Trustworthy.
Reliable.
