Flood Insurance in Texas

Because Home Insurance Doesn’t Cover Floods

In Sugar Land, Katy, and much of Southeast Texas, floods aren’t rare—they’re expected. And unfortunately, standard home insurance doesn’t cover flood damage. That’s why DeShazo Insurance offers affordable, federally backed and private flood policies to protect your property.

Flood Insurance FAQs

  • Do I need flood insurance if I’m not in a flood zone?

    Term covers you for a set number of years (e.g., 20 or 30), while whole life lasts your entire life and builds cash value.

  • Can I get flood insurance through FEMA?

    Yes. We offer policies through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) and private market options.

  • Is there a waiting period?

    Yes—usually 30 days, so don’t wait until storm season.

  • Does my mortgage lender require flood insurance?

    If you're in a high-risk zone, yes. We’ll help you check flood maps and meet lender requirements.
