      <div class="body"><p>In the wake of the massive destruction wrought by Harvey, details tucked away in builders&rsquo; risk policies may spell the difference between financial relief and hardship for some contractors.</p>

<p>While water damage was a leading cause in the estimated $20 billion worth of damage caused by Harvey, not all water damage is created equal when it comes to builders&rsquo; risk policies, insurance industry experts say.</p>

<p>The key issue is whether the damage was caused by a &ldquo;flood&rdquo; or by wind-driven rain or other sources, which can determine significantly how much the policy will pay towards repairing the damage.</p>

<div style="width:36%; float:left; padding-right:1%; margin:2% 3% 1% 0; border-right:4px solid #b3b3b3;">
<h4>&nbsp;</h4>

<p><span style="color:red;"><span style="font-size:20px;"><strong>If flooding is the cause of the damage, the policy is likely to be less generous, Chubb notes.</strong></span></span></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
</div>

<div>
<p>&ldquo;When it comes to property insurance, where the water comes from and how the damage occurs can make all the difference in respect to policy coverage,&rdquo; notes a recent <a href="https://www2.chubb.com/us-en/_assets/doc/2016-05-builders-risk--water-damage-or-flood.pdf">white paper by Chubb, &ldquo;Builders&rsquo; Risk: Water Damage or Flood?&rdquo;</a></p>

<p>If flooding is the cause of the damage, the policy is likely to be less generous, Chubb notes. In this case, there will likely be a higher deductible and it may be pegged to a percentage of the property&rsquo;s value. Under the percentage scenario, the deductible can be considerably higher than a flat deductible for other types of water damage, the insurer&rsquo;s white paper notes.&nbsp;By contrast, when the water damage is of the non-flooding type, the coverage is likely to go right up to the policy limit, according to Chubb.</p>

<p>The same difference the amount a policy will pay out is also true if the damage is caused by a storm surge and whether that storm surge falls under the policy&rsquo;s definition of a wind-driven event or flooding.</p>

<p>How a builders&rsquo; risk policy defines flooding and how that definition matches up to the events that caused the damage is crucial then, Chubb notes.</p>

<p>One example cited by Chubb, drawn from a policy put out by the Insurance Service Office, defines a flood, in part, as:</p>

<p>&ldquo;A general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of normally dry land areas due to:</p>

<ol>
	<li>The overflow of inland or tidal waters;</li>
	<li>The unusual or rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source.&rdquo;</li>
</ol>

<p>But whether damage is defined as flood caused or wind-driven won&rsquo;t matter much to contractors who failed to protect themselves with adequate insurance before the disastrous storm hit, according to a Harvey alert issued by the law firm Gray Reed &amp; McGraw, which has offices in Houston and Dallas.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Harvey may also prove to be a costly lesson for many project owners and contractors,&rdquo; note lawyers at Gray Reed. &ldquo;As Texas begins to focus on recovery in the coming weeks, Harvey will further serve as a reminder to all construction industry stakeholders that hurricanes, and other &ldquo;acts of God&rdquo;, are risks that must be effectively managed during the pre-construction and construction phases of every project.&rdquo;</p>

<p>J.P.Vogel, a partner at the firm, said Harvey inflicted more severe wind damage on Texas&#39; coast, then punished it with a storm surge. Houston mainly sustained flood damage.</p>

<p>&quot;The claims process is going to start unfolding probably starting right now,&quot; Vogel said. &quot;I would say probably not until the next couple of months are you going to see this tally board on what&#39;s being denied and what&#39;s being granted.&quot;</p>
