A sump pump and a sewer backup can cause water damage, but that doesn’t mean every homeowners policy handles that damage the same way.

At State Farm, Back-Up of Sewer or Drain coverage is an endorsement that has to be added to the homeowners policy for that coverage to apply.

Don’t wait until there’s water on the floor to find out whether it’s on your policy.
Check your declarations page, or ask us and we can show you where to look.

Working remotely from your kitchen table and operating a business out of your home are two different things from an insurance standpoint.

If you simply work remotely for an employer, that generally doesn’t require additional homeowners coverage.

If customers come to the house, you keep business inventory there, or you’ve started operating your own business from the property, it’s worth having a conversation about it.

If your setup has changed, we can help you sort out whether it matters for your coverage.

A lot can change around a house or vehicle in a year without feeling like a major event.
That’s why we recommend taking a look at your home and auto insurance about once a year.

You don’t need to memorize the policy. Just think through what has changed since the last review: vehicles, drivers, home improvements, valuable belongings or how the property is being used.

If it’s been a while, we can go through the policy with you and explain what’s there.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

If you only improve the security on one account this month, start with your email.
Your email is often the key to resetting passwords for banking, shopping and other online accounts. Use a strong, unique password and turn on multi-factor authentication.

It takes a few minutes and makes it harder for someone else to get into everything connected to that address.

If you have questions about how identity-related coverage works with your insurance, we can explain what your policy includes.

Fire Prevention Week runs October 4–10, and this year’s focus is something most homes deal with every day: rechargeable batteries.

One simple habit: don’t charge phones, tablets, power tools or other lithium-ion devices on a bed, couch or other soft surface.

Use the charger made or approved for the device, and stop using a battery that is swelling, unusually hot or giving off an unusual odor. It’s a small change to a routine most of us barely think about.

If questions about fire coverage come up while you’re looking around the house, we can help explain how your homeowners policy works.

Boats, campers and other summer equipment will start heading into storage soon.

Before putting something away for the season, remove valuables, take a few current photos, and make sure you know where it will be stored.

It’s also worth checking whether anything about the vehicle, equipment or storage arrangement has changed since last year.

If you’re unsure whether a change matters for your coverage, we can walk through it.

September 25 is National Tune-Up Day, and the timing makes sense in Wisconsin.

Before the furnace starts running every day:
• Check the filter.
• Test your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms.
• Make sure heating vents aren’t blocked.

If the furnace is due for professional service, September is also a better time to schedule it than after the first cold stretch.

A few basic checks now can make the start of heating season simpler.

If you ask us to compare your insurance, one of the most useful things you can bring is your current declarations pages.

They show the coverage limits, deductibles and other details you already have.
That matters because two prices can look comparable even when the coverage behind them isn’t.

Seeing your current coverage lets us compare things more accurately and helps avoid reducing something important just to lower the price.

If you’re not sure which pages to bring, we can tell you what we need.

Fall officially starts today.

Before the leaves really start coming down, take a walk around the house and check the gutters, downspouts and drainage areas.

Make sure downspouts are connected and directing water away from the foundation, and clear anything that is already blocking water flow.

It’s much easier to take care of now than after wet leaves start filling everything in.

Not everyone has time to stop into the office during the day.

We can talk face to face, set up a virtual appointment, or handle many insurance questions over the phone.

The process is largely the same. We’ll ask what you currently have, what’s important to you and what you’re trying to figure out.

Use whichever option works best for your schedule.
