🏡 A QUICK INSURANCE TIP FOR HOMEOWNERS HIRING SOMEONE TO DO WORK AROUND THE HOUSE

With so many talented people offering side jobs and home services in community Facebook groups, I wanted to share a friendly reminder from an insurance perspective.

Whether you're hiring a full-time contractor or someone doing a weekend side job, it's worth asking one important question before the work begins: “Do you have insurance, and can you provide proof of coverage?”

Here's why it matters:

🔨 Accidents happen. A ladder can fall, a pipe can burst, a fire can start, or someone's work can accidentally damage your property.

🩹 Someone could get hurt. If a worker is injured while working on your property, questions about who is responsible and what coverage may apply can become complicated.

🏠 Don't assume your homeowners insurance covers everything. Your policy may not cover every situation involving an uninsured worker or damage caused during a job. Coverage depends on your policy and the circumstances.

📄 Ask for proof of insurance. Depending on the work, ask about general liability insurance and, when applicable, workers' compensation coverage. A certificate of insurance is a good starting point, and you can ask the insurance agent listed on it to help confirm coverage.

💡 Remember: A small job doesn't necessarily mean a small risk. And someone doing side work isn't automatically uninsured or unqualified. The important thing is to ask questions and understand the protections in place before hiring.

This isn't about discouraging anyone from earning extra income or supporting local workers. It's about helping homeowners make informed decisions and helping everyone avoid unexpected surprises.

As an insurance professional, I'd much rather see someone ask a few questions before a project starts than discover a potential coverage problem after something goes wrong.

A simple question today could save you a lot of stress tomorrow.

Feel free to share this with a homeowner who might find it helpful! 🏡

🏡🚗 BE HONEST...

When was the last time you actually READ your home or auto insurance policy?

Last month?
Last year?
Never? 😬

Don't worry, you're definitely not alone!

Insurance policies aren't exactly bedtime reading, but what's written in those pages can make a BIG difference when something unexpected happens.

Here's something I wish more people understood:

Just because you have insurance doesn't automatically mean everything you own or every situation is covered.

A few things worth asking your agent:

🏡 Does my homeowners policy cover water backup from a sewer or drain?

🚗 Do I have rental reimbursement coverage if my vehicle is damaged in a covered accident?

💍 Do I have adequate coverage for valuable jewelry or other special belongings?

☂️ Would an umbrella policy make sense for additional liability protection?

One of my favorite parts of being an independent insurance agent is helping people understand what they're actually paying for.

Insurance should come with answers, not more questions!

💬 Let's have a little fun — have you ever read your insurance policy from beginning to end?

👍 Yes, I actually have!
😂 Nope, that's what my agent is for!
🤔 I probably should!

If it's time for a coverage review, I'd love to help.

💜 BIG insurance companies have big advertising budgets.

I have something a little different.

A local, woman-owned business.
Decades of insurance experience.
Access to multiple insurance carriers.
And a genuine interest in getting to know the people and businesses I help.

I've been in the insurance industry since 1998, and one thing hasn't changed:

Insurance is about PEOPLE.

The family buying their first home.
The contractor growing a business.
The restaurant owner putting everything into their dream.
The driver who just wants to know they're properly protected.

You deserve more than a policy number and an 800 number.

As an independent insurance agent, I work with multiple carriers to help find solutions that fit your needs, not just one company's offerings.

And when you have questions? You know who to call.

When you support Beacon Insurance Solutions, you're supporting a small Maine business, too.

✨ Let's get to know each other.

If you're looking for an insurance agent who values relationships, education, and personal service, I'd love the opportunity to earn your business.

🎃 PLOT TWIST: Your insurance policy isn't quite what you thought it was.

Imagine discovering AFTER a claim that something you assumed was covered...isn't.

Now THAT is an insurance horror story! 👻

After more than 20 years in the insurance industry, I've seen how one overlooked coverage or misunderstanding can turn an already stressful situation into something much worse.

The scary part? Most people don't know what questions they should be asking.

That's where I come in.

At Beacon Insurance Solutions, I believe insurance should come with explanations, options, and an agent who takes the time to get to know YOU.

💜 No tricks. Just guidance, experience, and insurance solutions built around your needs.

Here's a question for you:

What's scarier — paying too much for insurance or finding out you don't have the coverage you expected?
