Can I insure my caravan against hail damage?
Extreme weather conditions, such as strong storms or severe hailstorms, are becoming more common. Did you know that hail damage is one of the most common damages to caravans? Since repair costs after hail damage can run into the thousands of euros, it's nice to be properly insured. Often people only find out after damage that they are not as well insured as they thought. With most insurers, hail damage is not included in the standard coverage of caravan insurance and you must insure it separately. At Alpina.nl , we are happy to explain how to insure your caravan against hail damage.
Caravan insurance against hail damage: wise!
Of course, you are not required to insure your caravan against hail damage, but it is wise. Extreme hailstorms are increasingly common these days. Do you regularly travel abroad with your caravan? Around Lake Garda and in parts of France, heavy hailstorms are proportionally more common. In the Netherlands, damage to a caravan due to hailstorms is also becoming more common. There are hailstorms in which stones fall with the size of golf balls or even larger. This can seriously damage your caravan in a short period of time, and the costs to repair it can be high. A caravan insurance policy with hail coverage ensures that you are properly insured even in the event of a hailstorm.
What does it cost to insure my caravan against hail damage?
You may think that it is very expensive to insure your caravan against hail damage. However, this is not that expensive. Moreover, in a severe hailstorm, the damage to your caravan can run into the thousands of euros. So it is better not to save on your caravan insurance by excluding hail damage. The premium you pay per month is a lot lower than the repair costs after substantial damage. Hail damage coverage applies both in the Netherlands and abroad. Will you be traveling with your caravan soon? Then check immediately how you are insured for hail damage.
Coverage caravan insurance in case of hail damage
A caravan insurance policy provides standard coverage for fire and theft. In most cases, storm damage is also covered as standard. This is nice, because storms are also becoming more common. Hail damage, however, is not included in the standard coverage of caravan insurance. However, not all caravan owners realize this. They often think they are well insured, but find out after a severe hailstorm that they are not insured against hail damage at all. In that case, they can therefore pay the thousands of euros in damages all by themselves. It is therefore advisable to choose a good caravan insurance policy with coverage against hail damage.
Hail-resistant roof and deductible
More and more caravans today have a hail-resistant roof. Caravans built from 2005 onwards have a hail-resistant roof and come with a certificate. Caravans with a polyester roof also count as a hail-resistant roof. Without a hail-resistant roof, your roof will have to be replaced with a pricey hail-resistant roof in case of hail damage. With a hail-resistant roof, you have no additional deductible for hail damage.
