Protection Program
Why do I need Tru-Gap Protection?
- Statistics
- Changing weather patterns each year can affect the number and intensity of storms that will damage our homes and businesses
- Tornadic winds are not the only type of winds that can cause damage to our property. Wind damage can occur with downburst winds, straight line winds, and just high winds.
- In the DFW area, over the last 4 years we have received over 70 tornadoes and 25-35 of them have been F4 or greater.
- The DFW area, also receives 7-10 days each year of 2" or larger hail. Hail damage can occur with just 1" hail.
- The second most claimed events are caused by water damage
- Water and Mold damage claims cost insurers $2.5 Billion nationally.
- Common types of water damage are not always caused by flooding as most of you think. Many of them result from plumbing leaks, household appliances, and damaged roofs.
- Mold claims typically occur simultaneously with water damage claims if water damage is not attended to within 12-24 hours.
- The most costly insurance claims are those caused by Fire
- A fire occurs every 7 seconds
- Not all fires completely destroy your home or business. Many of them occur inside the dwelling and are commonly caused by the following:
- outdated wiring
- cigarettes
- cooking and heating equipment
- children (matches, lighters, and fireplaces)
- hot spots (candles, wall sockets, extension cords, and chemicals)
- Other damage is incurred with fire damage besides just the items destroyed by the fire. You also incur smoke and water damage.
- Changing weather patterns each year can affect the number and intensity of storms that will damage our homes and businesses
