Updating Your Home?

Be sure to update your home insurance policy, too.
AAA Mid States

As the weather starts to warm, homeowners tend to make any repairs sustained from winter’s havoc, upgrade their kitchen, bathroom, or even windows, or other do-it-yourself adventures. But before making any improvements, homeowners should review their home insurance policy.

Premiums are based on the replacement value of your home and its contents at the time your policy was purchased. When you upgrade your home, you’ll need to be thoroughly covered in the event that you have to make a claim.

Some key upgrade projects to talk to your insurance agent about include:

  • Finishing a basement
  • Adding a pool
  • Adding a new shed or garage, or other detached structures, like a fence
  • Remodeling a kitchen or bathroom
  • Replacing the roof
  • Adding new windows and door
