Does your Massachusetts Home Owners Insurance policy cover you if your foundation cracks? We can help you find out at J.M. Doherty Insurance Agency, Inc. www.jmdins.com.

In the real world, that's what happens.

To fix a structural defect in a foundation involves serious man power and equipment. There is also time to jack up the house, support the structure while repairs are made, then fix the defect itself. The cost can be ten's of thousdands of dollars. Have you checked the cost of a foundation lately? New codes and bylaws may require major changes to the support system of a house. Your local building inspector makes that decision.

For the record according to Boston.com, Associated Press and the New York Times; New England has about a half a dozen such events annually.

The staff at J.M. Doherty Insurance Agency, Inc. www.jmdins.com will take the time to review your present policy provisions.
