At DJ Kauffman Agency in Hutchinson, KS, we believe having a home insurance policy is as crucial as understanding what is covered in a standard policy. It can be disheartening for a homeowner to assume something is covered by their policy only to find out after a covered incident that it isn’t. Therefore, we want to inform you about what a standard home insurance policy covers.<\/p>\n

What Does a Standard Policy Typically Cover?<\/h2>\n

A standard home insurance policy provides coverage to repair or replace the structure of your home, both inside and out, and other structures, such as sheds or detached garages. Additionally, a standard home insurance policy covers your personal belongings. It reimburses when you’re displaced from your home due to a covered peril. You also get liability coverage if someone is injured on your property or if a fire or animal from your property damages someone else’s property.<\/p>\n

Moreover, standard home insurance policies cover a limited number of perils to your home, such as fire, explosion, wind, falling objects, and hail damage.<\/p>\n

What Isn’t Covered?<\/h2>\n

While earthquakes and floods are valid concerns for homeowners, they are not covered by a standard home policy. However, they can be added for an additional cost or by writing a separate policy.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, a standard home insurance policy does not cover damage from termites and other insects, rust, rot, general wear and tear, or birds or rodents.<\/p>\n
