  • What's Covered

    Exterior Sewer/Septic Line
  • Overview

    As a home ages, so do the exterior water service and sewer/septic lines. Leaks and breaks are usually caused by aging, corrosion, extreme temperatures, or settling or shifting of the ground. Because these lines are buried underground on your property and not typically inspected, a failure is almost impossible to predict. If these lines fail, replacement can cost thousands of dollars. Most basic homeowners insurance doesn't cover repairs to the exterior water service line or sewer/septic line on your property that are damaged due to normal wear and tear. Be prepared with affordable Premier Exterior Line. This plan covers your water service line (unlimited annual coverage with unlimited service calls) and sewer/septic line (unlimited service calls up to the $7,500 benefit per call).
