Completing residential garage renovations may require changes to your home insurance policy. Review some renovation categories that could influence your decision to have your insurance policy modified.

Structural Materials

The addition of structural materials will increase the value of your garage. New materials could also enhance the garage’s durability, possibly impacting the type of insurance coverage you need.

During the renovation process, prepare a list of the used materials. Knowing the value of the structural materials will help you decide on how much home insurance coverage you’ll need to protect the garage adequately.

Electrical Materials

Electrical materials may become damaged or stolen. If the materials being utilized for garage renovation are pricey, consider adding them to your home insurance policy.

The coverage will guard you against damages that are not your fault. If any of the electrical materials are stolen, your insurance coverage will compensate for their replacement.

Decorative Materials

Paint, trim pieces, and other decorative materials may be employed during the renovation process. All the upgrades will add value to the garage. Adding these materials to your insurance policy could prove to be a wise investment.

Use Value

Once the renovations are accomplished, you may utilize your garage for new purposes. Altering the layout of the garage could enable it to serve multiple functions. Because the garage will be more useful to you, you might want to equip the structure with more extensive insurance coverage.
