Homeowners Insurance and How It Works
Homeowners insurance is a type of policy that may provide financial protection to homeowners in case of damage to their property or belongings. It works by the policyholder paying a premium to the insurance company in exchange for coverage. When a covered event occurs, the homeowner can file a claim with the insurance company, which may then assess the damage and provide compensation to repair or replace the damaged property up to the limits specified in the policy and minus its deductible.
Homeowners Insurance and Roof Coverage, Remodeling and Repair
Basic home insurance policies may cover roof repair and, in some cases, roof remodeling. While generally providing coverage for repairing or replacing a damaged roof due to events such as storms, fire or vandalism, homeowners insurance may not extend to renovations or upgrades made during a policy’s term. You may need to enhance your coverage to ensure it’s sufficient for added-value or new features.
Coverage generally varies depending on your chosen policy. Here is a breakdown of what a typical homeowners insurance policy may include:
- Dwelling coverage can protect the structure of your home, including walls, roof and built-in appliances.
- Personal property coverage can protect your belongings if damaged or stolen.
- Liability coverage can protect you financially when accidents affecting other parties (e.g., guests or neighbors) happen.
- Loss of use coverage can protect you financially when your home is temporarily uninhabitable due to covered events like fire or storm damage.
