    After Edmonton’s record-breaking wet summer, water damage is top of mind for Alberta homeowners. On this episode of the Get It Right Podcast, Terry Evans sits down with Patti Bligh of Klondike Insurance to break down what homeowners need to know about protecting their property from water, wind, hail and storm damage.Patti explains the important differences between sewer backup, overland water, service line coverage and gradual seepage—and why assuming you’re covered could lead to an expensive surprise. They also discuss preventative maintenance, sump pumps, what to do immediately after discovering water damage, and how Alberta’s unprecedented volume of claims is affecting repairs and the insurance industry.Most importantly, Patti explains why homeowners should review their policies, understand their coverage and have a conversation with their insurance broker before disaster strikes.Key TopicsImpact of record rainfall on home insuranceWater damage and overland water coverageClaims process for water-related damagesPreventative measures to avoid water infiltrationImportance of reviewing insurance policies and coverage optionsChapters00:00 - Introduction to record rainfall and insurance concerns02:06 - Coverage for wind, hail, and water damage03:21 - Understanding overland water coverage and claims04:57 - Questions to ask your insurance broker about water coverage07:09 - Maintenance tips to prevent water infiltration08:35 - First steps after discovering water in your basement10:16 - The difference between seepage and storm-related water damage11:48 - Insurance industry response to increased claims13:22 - Impact of claims on insurance rates and industry health15:57 - Preventative measures and policy review for homeownerswww.klondikeinsurance.comwww.reluctantlypodcast.comwww.zoneonepodcast.comwww.albertagolfpodcast.com
