THE IMPORTANCE OF MAINTENANCE OF YOUR VEHICLE, HOUSE, ETC
Most short-term insurers reject claims due to inadequate maintenance of your insured items. If your vehicle has not been serviced regularly, and your brakes and Tyres are in poor condition, you risk having that motor accident claim rejected. The same applies to regular maintenance of your house. If you have a roof leak caused by a broken tile, you risk having your storm damage claim rejected.
Ensure that your possessions are regularly maintained so that an insurer has no reason to repudiate your claim. For more info and excellent short-term insurance rates contact me on 071 963 6433.
