A. The Sewer Line Protection Program provides repairs to clogs and blockages of a covered sewer line caused by normal wear and tear. AWRIS takes care of the costs of permits required to excavate and complete covered repairs; as well as refilling, raking/leveling and seeding of excavated portion of customer’s property; and restoration of public sidewalks and roadways if they’re excavated to complete a covered repair. We also follow-up with an inspection of a customer’s sewer line after a covered repair.
A. Because sewer lines are an integral part of your home, and they can be prone to problems. Your homeowners insurance typically doesn’t cover them, meaning you’re responsible if there’s a problem. The Sewer Line Protection Program from AWRIS protects you from those costly repair bills – and takes away the hassle of dealing with them.
A. Individual policies vary, but standard homeowners’ insurance policies typically do NOT cover repair or replacement of sewer lateral.
