Earthquake Insurance for Seattle and all of WA

Did you know that more than 1,000 earthquakes occur in Washington each year? Washington also has a record of at least 20 damaging earthquakes during the past 125 years. While this may not be as many as California- if you own a home in Washington, you should be covered with earthquake insurance. Seattle residents, in particular, need to realize that a fault zone runs through the middle of the city, making earthquakes the most significant threat facing homeowners.

Earthquake insurance in Seattle and surrounding areas is vital to protect your home and it’s belongings in case the “big one” hits the area. A major Seattle fault earthquake could cause over 1000 deaths and devastate the city's infrastructure. Older brick buildings and tilt up construction is the most vulnerable, but if an earthquake occurs, the chances for damage to your home are very high.

Whether you want to focus on protecting the structure of your home, the contents and your possessions, or want a plan that offers additional living expenses in the event of a truly ruthless quake, then rest assured because at Altman Insurance Agency we can help tailor a plan specifically to you!
