Spring hailstorms across Bonneville and Bingham counties drive roof and vehicle damage — percentage wind/hail deductibles may apply.

Older homes near the greenbelt and river corridors should review flood and earthquake endorsements — standard HO3 excludes both.

Home Insurance in Idaho Falls — FAQ

Standard homeowners insurance (HO-3) covers your dwelling (structure), other structures on the property (fences, detached garages), personal property, liability for injuries that occur on your property, and additional living expenses if your home is uninhabitable after a covered loss. It does not automatically cover floods or earthquakes — those require separate policies.
