Volcano Insurance for Homeowners in California

Protecting Your Home from the Unexpected – Including Eruptions, Ash, and Lava Flows We understand that natural disasters like wildfires and earthquakes are top of mind for California homeowners—but what about volcanoes? While volcanic eruptions may not be common in most parts of California, certain regions are considered at risk. That’s why we offer Volcano Insurance as a part of our comprehensive protection plans for your property and belongings. When standard homeowner insurance doesn’t cover all-natural disasters, Volcano Insurance fills that gap—giving you peace of mind when it matters most.

Homeowners Insurance

What Is Volcano Insurance?

Volcano Insurance helps cover the cost of repairing or replacing your home and belongings after volcanic events like:

  • Lava flows

  • Volcanic ash damage

  • Earth tremors related to volcanic activity

  • Fire caused by eruption

  • Mudflows triggered by melting snow or heavy rains after an eruption

This coverage is often excluded or limited in standard homeowners’ policies. With Western Insurance, you can tailor your protection with an add-on or standalone policy to ensure you’re covered for every potential risk in your area.
