Dwelling Coverage Protect the physical structure of your home from local risks like fire, severe storms, and other covered perils. Our dwelling coverage is designed to ensure you have the resources to rebuild or repair your home if a covered loss occurs.
Personal Property Protection Your belongings make your house a home. Whether it is your furniture, electronics, or family heirlooms, we provide coverage to replace or repair your possessions if they are damaged or stolen in a covered incident.
Liability Insurance We help defend your financial well-being. Liability insurance provides a safety net if someone is injured on your property or if you accidentally cause damage to someone else’s property.
Additional Living Expenses Coverage If a covered loss makes your home uninhabitable, we want to make sure your life keeps moving forward. This coverage helps pay for temporary housing, meals, and other necessary expenses while your home is being repaired.
Discounts and Savings for South Carolina Homeowners We look for every opportunity to make your coverage more cost effective. From home safety features and security systems to bundling your auto and home policies, we strive to provide the protection you need at a price that fits your family budget.
In South Carolina, a standard homeowners insurance policy typically does not include coverage for earthquake damage. Because our state experiences between 10 and 15 earthquakes every year, many of which are felt right here in the Lowcountry, it is important to consider this additional layer of protection.
To protect your home against seismic events, you generally have two options:
Earthquake Endorsement: This is an add-on to your existing homeowners policy that specifically covers earthquake related damages.
Standalone Earthquake Policy: This is a separate policy dedicated entirely to covering losses resulting from an earthquake.
Earthquake insurance usually includes a deductible ranging from 10% to 20% of the coverage limit. For example, if your home is insured for $200,000, a 10% deductible would be $20,000. Given the seismic history of our region, we recommend discussing these options with us to ensure your property is fully protected.
