Quality installation is a core part of the roofing equation. Our agency recommends these steps for choosing the right roofing professional.
  • Check for a permanent place of business, telephone number, tax I.D. number and, where required, a business license.
  • Request verification of professional liability insurance.
  • Look for a company with a proven track record; ask for and check client references and request a list of completed projects.
  • Verify whether the contractor is properly licensed or bonded.
  • Insist on a written proposal. The proposal should include complete descriptions of the work and specifications, including approximate start and completion dates and payment procedures.
  • Check to see if the contractor is a member of any regional or national industry associations, such as National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA).
  • Call your local Better Business Bureau to check for any complaints that have been filed.
  • Have the contractor explain his project supervision and quality control procedures.
  • Carefully read and make sure you understand any roofing warranty offered; watch for provisions that would void the warranty.
Remember, price is only one criteria for selecting a roofing contractor. Professionalism and quality workmanship also should weigh heavily on your decision

Home Insurance for People with a Disability - Protecting Your Home's Features

When you have a home with special features and adaptions, it becomes essential to consider how this impacts your home’s value. It can also impact your home insurance needs. For those who have a loved one living with a disability or unique needs, it is important to consider the value of added features to your home. Your basic home insurance policy should provide ample protection. However, it will only do so if it offers enough overall protection. Here are a few things to consider.
 
What Features Does Your Home Have?
 
Many times, those who are living with disabilities or unique needs have a variety of equipment to provide support. You may need a solution, for example, to help you with moving from a bed to a wheelchair. You may have a specially designed shower or large ramps outside of the home. In some situations, property owners have mobility solutions built around and into the home, such as systems to transport a person from one floor to the next. Many of these are quite expensive. Determine what extra features you have. Look for specific items that are very valuable or would be costly to replace. These are the specific items you need to take into consideration. You want to be sure your home insurance policy covers these highly valuable items.
 
What Does Your Home Insurance Cover?
 

Most often, home insurance covers the contents or personal property in your home. However, these policies limit that coverage overall and per item. This may mean that some high valued items do not have enough protection. Let’s say you have a wheelchair system that helps with elevating a person into a bed. The system may cost thousands of dollars to replace.
​
You want to be sure your home insurance can help cover the loss if an incident like a fire occurs. To do this, call our agency. Let us help you determine the value and amount of coverage you have. Then, we’ll find out if there is a per item limit.
We will talk about the types of items you own as well as the cost to replace them. Then, we may recommend an endorsement or add-on level of coverage for these items. This is not always necessary. But, in any case, our agency should know about the valuable items you have at home to make sure you have protection.

A Better Way to Save on Insurance

Insuring a home for its real estate value rather than for the cost of rebuilding. When real estate prices go down, some homeowners may think they can reduce the amount of insurance on their home. But insurance is designed to cover the cost of rebuilding, not the sales price of the home. You should make sure that you have enough coverage to completely rebuild your home and replace your belongings—no matter what the real estate market is doing.
​A better way to save: Raise your deductible. An increase from $500 to $1,000 could save up to 25 percent on your premium payments.
This is one of the most common home insurance mistakes people make, along with a suggestion to avert that pitfall while still saving money (we call them, “better ways to save”).
