Comprehensive Guide to Flood Damage Claims in Texas

February 13, 2025

Flooding is one of the most common and devastating causes of property damage in Texas. From personal belongings to structural damage, floods can result in significant financial loss for property owners. If you’ve recently experienced property damage or loss due to flooding, it’s essential to have a trusted legal team on your side. At Patout, Fontana, and Dellis PLLC, our seasoned Houston flood damage claim lawyers are here to fight for the full and fair compensation you deserve.


Why You Need a Flood Damage Claim Lawyer

Flood damage often extends beyond what meets the eye. It can destroy personal items with sentimental value, such as photographs and family heirlooms, while also causing extensive structural issues to your home or business. Unfortunately, insurance companies may:

  • Delay your claim unnecessarily.
  • Undervalue the extent of your damages.
  • Deny valid claims outright.

Navigating these challenges can be overwhelming, especially when trying to recover and rebuild. Our experienced attorneys understand the complexities of flood damage claims and will work tirelessly to ensure you receive the compensation you are entitled to under your policy.


Common Types of Flood Damage Claims

Flooding can cause a wide range of damages, including:

  • Structural damage to homes and businesses.
  • Mold and mildew growth due to water exposure.
  • Damage to personal belongings, including furniture and electronics.
  • Electrical and plumbing issues.
  • Business interruption and lost revenue.
