What Is Matching Siding Coverage?

When your home is damaged by wind or hail, your insurance company will work to replace the damaged sides with available, comparable siding material. Sometimes it might not be possible to find replacement siding that matches the undamaged areas. With Matching Siding Coverage, the cost to replace undamaged siding to match the repaired or replaced siding is covered. This is an optional coverage that can be added to your home insurance.

When your home is damaged by wind or hail, your insurance company will work to replace the damaged sides with available, comparable siding material.  Sometimes it might not be possible to find replacement siding that matches the undamaged areas.  With Matching Siding Coverage, the cost to replace undamaged siding to match the repaired or replaced siding is covered.  This is an optional coverage that can  be added to your home insurance.

 

Acuity’s coverage stands apart. Unlike many insurance companies, coverage applies:

  • To siding mismatches resulting from color fading as well as obsolete or discontinued materials.
  • To all siding types. Many carriers limit coverage to vinyl and aluminum materials.

 

Beyond the benefits of what is covered with Acuity, there are four limits to fit your needs: $10,000, $20,000, $30,000, and $40,000. And, if you choose not to replace your undamaged siding, your deductible is waived.

 

Acuity’s claims service is second to none, so you can rest easy knowing you are in good hands in the event of a loss. This coverage isn’t available in all states, so be sure to talk to your independent agent today to see if Matching Siding Coverage is available to add to your home insurance!
