Underground Service Lines
Did you know that underground service lines that run from the street to a home are the responsibility of a homeowner? This means that any sewer and water piping, as well as
underground electrical and communication lines running from the street to your house, are your responsibility to fix should a problem occur.
What you may not know is that these lines can be damaged due to causes that are not covered under your standard homeowners insurance policy, leaving you with a messy yard and a hefty bill to pay.
What damages are covered in an Underground Service Line policy?
- Water
- Waste disposal
- Heating, including geothermal, steam, natural gas and propane
- Electrical power
- Communications, including internet access, telecommunications, wide area networks and data transmission
- Drainage
- Compressed air
