Home Insurance Considerations This Spring

It is forecasted to be an extra chilly winter for North Carolina, and the spring cannot come soon enough for some. Before the buds start blooming and the world turns bright green again be sure to check out your home owner’s insurance policy to make sure you are covered from whatever the wind blows your way. At JC Demo Insurance Group we want to know that all of our clients are protected to matter the weather or the situation so here are a few spring home tips. We serve people in and around Matthews, NC.  

Things to Consider Around the House This Spring

  • When the weather warms and you start your spring cleaning, go beyond de-cluttering. Check for mold damage after winter storms, get rid of standing debris around the frame of the house to prevent water damage, do a full check up. It is best to find any damage early, and it is much more cost effective to prevent an issue than to pay for remediation. If you set aside spring as home check-up time at the same time as your spring cleaning then you will stay on top of any issues. 
  • What are the predictions for the weather for the rest of the year? We recommend you always keep full coverage home insurance as well as a flood policy. But if you don’t happen to have all the protection possible, check the weather forecast for the remainder of the year. It may be prudential to upgrade your policy if the scientist predicts a rough season. 
  • This tip should be done each time the seasons change, four times a year. The first day of spring, summer, fall, and winter is the time to change and check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. A few moments each season can save your life and home.
