What is Service Line Coverage?

Hanover Service Line Coverage

 

 

 

 

In the last year or so many insurance companies have added a new endorsement available on their homeowners policies called Service Line Coverage.  What is this new coverage and why do you need it? Service line coverage covers the expense of costly excavation and repair of underground wiring and piping.

Common Causes of loss are:

  • Wear & Tear
  • Rust or Corrosion
  • Mechanical breakdown
  • Collapse from above ground weight
  • Artificially generated electric current
  • Freezing or frost heave
  • External for from excavation
  • Tree or other root invasion.
