Answer: I’m so sorry to hear about your apartment. Unfortunately, bursting pipes can be a problem whether you rent or own a home.
The good news is that
renters insurance
generally covers water damage that comes from somewhere inside the rental building. As long a covered peril caused the damage, your Allstate renters policy should cover it.
Allstate
is one of the leading insurance companies in the U.S. and has some of the best standard water damage coverage. If a certain kind of water damage isn’t covered by standard coverage, Allstate usually has separate policies and endorsements available for purchase as add-ons.
