What is the Wind / Hail Deductible?

This deductible refers to the out-of-pocket expense that the customer will pay towards damages or a loss in the event of a covered loss caused by wind or hail. The deductible amount is subtracted from the claims settlement when a claim is covered and paid.

  • Virginia: The Wind / Hail Deductible will be initially the same as the Hurricane Deductible when quoting. It may be subject to a minimum deductible ($5,000 or $10,000, depending on the coastal zone). It also may not exceed over 10% of the Replacement Cost Estimate (RCE).
  • Delaware: The Wind / Hail Deductible for homes in coastal zones will be set in dollars. Coastal Zones 1-3 will have a minimum deductible of $10K, and Coastal Zone 4 will have a minimum deductible of $5K.
