What does service line insurance cover?

Service line coverage protects you from the high costs of fixing your home's underground utility lines, like water lines, sewer pipes and power lines. You're often responsible for fixing these items when they break down, even when your city or town provides these services to you. Service line coverage helps pay for the cost to repair or replace damaged service lines up to $10,000 per incident once a $500 deductible is met.

Frost Heave and Line Freezing
