Insurance Endorsement

An endorsement changes the base policy. Some add protection or limits; others change conditions or restrictions. Do not infer the effect from a short title alone.

Read the full set

The TDI guide discusses add-ons for water backup, valuables, code upgrades and other needs. Ask which endorsements are attached to your proposal and what wording they replace.

Keep endorsements with the declarations and base form. A website description or verbal explanation does not replace the contract text.

See water backup, ordinance or law coverage and quote comparisons for practical examples to verify.
