What causes water damage in Indiana
Basement and crawl space water
Central and northern Indiana homes rely on sump pumps; southern Indiana has more crawl spaces that stay damp.
River flooding
The White, Wabash and Ohio rivers flood after long rain; June 2008 flooded much of central and southern Indiana.
Storms and freezes
Tornadoes and hail damage roofs in spring, and cold snaps burst pipes in winter.
Homes and how they are built
Indianapolis has older neighborhoods with basements and large rings of newer slab and crawl-space subdivisions. Smaller cities have aging housing with galvanized pipe and cast iron drains.
When it happens
Severe storms and flooding peak March through June. Freezes run December through February.
Rules and insurance in Indiana
Indiana has no statewide general contractor license; cities and counties license contractors. Plumbers are licensed by the state.
In every state, homeowners insurance excludes rising floodwater, which needs a separate flood policy. See what homeowners insurance covers.

Questions from Indiana homeowners
Why is there water in my crawl space after rain?
Usually poor grading, short downspouts or a high water table. Standing water under the house needs pumping, a vapor barrier and a drainage fix.
Does my policy cover a sump pump failure?
Only with a sump or water backup endorsement. It is one of the most common gaps in Midwest policies.
How do I find a licensed contractor?
Contractor licensing is local in Indiana, so check with your city or county building department.
