Water and Sewer Line Insurance Policy

As a homeowner, the exterior water and sewer lines that run from your house to your property boundary are your responsibility to pay for any repairs should these lines fail - and repair costs are often in the thousands. Lines can rupture due to normal wear and tear, such as age, tree root intrusions and ground shifts causing:

Water leaks in your home or pooling in your yard
Sewage backup in your home or pooling in your yard
Water or sewage backup in your basement/crawlspace
Foundational damage
Low water pressure
Sewage smell or backups in your sinks, toilets, bath/shower

Unexpected repairs can be both daunting and costly. Our Water Line and Sewer Line Protection Program protects you from these unexpected costs. See above for what we cover.
