Earthquake Information for California Residents
- In California, residential earthquake coverage can be purchased through the California Earthquake Authority (CEA).
- A CEA policy must be in place for insurance coverage to be available.
- Aftershocks that occur within 360 hours (15 days) of the main earthquake will be considered a part of the same quake.
- The CEA policy provides coverage for emergency repairs, up to $1,500. These repairs are NOT subject to a deductible.
- CEA policies also include coverage for additional living expenses when you’re unable to stay in your home due to earthquake damage.
