Homeowners insurance generally covers damage caused by wildfire, including covered damage to the home and personal belongings. However, coverage depends on the specific policy, its limits, conditions, and exclusions. Read more about [Brush Fire Property Defense](/wildfire-brushfire-property-defense) A friendly human at RIGHTSURE can review your entire policy with you to make sure you fully understand what coverage you currently have in place. Do I need a separate wildfire insurance policy in Arizona? Not necessarily. Fire damage, including wildfire damage, is generally covered under standard homeowners insurance. Review your policy to confirm the coverage provided, especially if your home is in an area with wildfire exposure. Read more about [Wildfire Risk Scores](/wildfire-brushfire-risk-qa). Does my home's wildfire risk score affect my home insurance premium? Yes, wildfire risk scores may influence underwriting, renewals, premiums, and eligibility (depending on the carrier). Read more about [Wildfire Risk Scores](/wildfire-brushfire-risk-qa). Does homeowners insurance cover smoke and soot damage from wildfires? Smoke and soot damage may be covered under homeowners insurance, even when the home has not been directly burned. Coverage depends on the cause of damage and the policy's terms, conditions, and exclusions. Will homeowners insurance pay for a hotel during a wildfire evacuation? Additional living expense coverage may pay for reasonable extra living costs when a covered event displaces you from your home. Some policies also provide limited coverage for evacuation ordered by authorities. Check your policy for eligibility, time limits, and coverage amounts. Does wildfire insurance cover trees and landscaping? Some homeowners insurance policies provide limited coverage for trees and shrubs damaged by fire. Coverage amounts and eligible property vary, so review your policy's landscaping limits and exclusions. How much wildfire insurance coverage do I need for my home? A useful starting point is your home's estimated replacement cost, rather than its market value. Review your dwelling coverage limit, personal property coverage, and additional living expense limits to understand how your policy would respond to a major covered fire loss. Does homeowners insurance cover flooding after a wildfire? Standard homeowners insurance generally does not cover flood damage, even when flooding occurs after a wildfire. Flood insurance is separate. Burned landscapes can increase runoff and flooding risk, making this an important distinction for homeowners to understand. ![RIGHTSURE](https://webtricity-assets-2.wbtcdn.com/31de1524-dc77-49cc-bcee-7eab37092034/images/logo.c905d820f33a3df5881f15ae019cc6c9fcd1c3168b120fa39f23341123810c5e.svg) RIGHTSURE is an [award-winning](/awards) [independent insurance agency](/independent-agent) providing reliable, honest, friendly & dependable insurance services to the families and businesses in Tucson, [Sierra Vista](/arizona-insurance/sierra-vista), Pima County, [Catalina Foothills](/arizona-insurance/catalina-foothills), [Sahuarita](/arizona-insurance/sahuarita), [Oro Valley](/arizona-insurance/oro-valley), [Marana](/arizona-insurance/marana), Catalina, Green Valley, Rio Rico, Willcox, Benson, [Casas Adobes](/arizona-insurance/casas-adobes), and Tombstone, as well as across the entire state of Arizona [and 33 other states.](https://www.rightsure.com/about#licenses) ## Tucson, AZ Office ### Give us a Call Monday - Friday: 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM Saturday: 7:00 AM - 1:00 PM [520-917-5295](tel:+1-520-917-5295) ### Stop By the Office Monday - Friday: 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM [5151 E Broadway Blvd Suite 100 Tucson, AZ 85711](/contact/tucson-office) ## Sierra Vista, AZ Office ### Give us a Call Monday - Friday: 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM Saturday: 7:00 AM - 1:00 PM [520-458-2222](tel:+1-520-458-2222) ### Stop By the Office Monday - Friday: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM [901 E Fry Blvd Sierra Vista, AZ 85635](/contact/sierra-vista-office) ## RIGHTSURE Customer Reviews I had a wonderful and easy experience, Marissa helped me and she’s amazing! — Celeste R.
