What Causes Water Damage in Phoenix
Phoenix's water damage comes in two distinct flavors. The first is the monsoon. From roughly June through September, powerful storm cells drop months' worth of rain in an hour onto sun-baked ground that can't absorb it. Flash floods fill washes and streets, wind-driven rain breaches roofs (often already stressed by extreme heat), and haboob dust followed by rain creates a mess that gets everywhere. Homes near washes and in low-lying parts of the Valley flood with little warning.
The second flavor is plumbing.
Insurance Notes for Phoenix Homeowners
Monsoon flash flooding is flood-insurance-only, even in the desert, with a 30-day NFIP wait. Slab-leak resulting damage is typically covered.
