HIGHER DISCOUNT OPTION (our original Roof Deductible):

This is our original Roof Deductible, designed to help lower the premium and is a great option for hard-to-place older roofs

• Optional coverage for those looking to lower their premium
• Beneficial to homes with roofs more than halfway through their useful life (10 years for a shingle roof, and 15 years for a tile roof on new business)
• Deductible amount clearly stated on Dec Page
• Can be added to policies if Hurricane Deductible is lower than Roof Deductible
• Roof Deductible request may be submitted anytime during policy period
• Easy to add — just one click to add the endorsement

People’s Trust believes roof deductibles are a better option over ACV for BOTH agents and policyholders. Here’s why.

• ACV policies determine the roof replacement cost ONLY at the time of loss leaving the settlement amount and policyholder’s financial responsibility open to interpretation at the time of a claim. With ACV the policyholder is exposed to unknown pricing and downside when they are at their most vulnerable – during a claim.
• For both of the PTI roof deductible endorsements, the deductible amount is clearly displayed at time of binding and on the Dec Page.
• Roof ACV also exposes agencies to unnecessary E&O claims. Our roof deductible amount displays on new and renewal Dec Pages for both endorsement options, so every agent can clearly explain to their policyholders all potential costs before binding the policy.

People’s Trust Roof Deductible Endorsement coupled with our repair model avoids the pitfall of lingering roof damage by making the repair or replacement using our affiliated company, Rapid Response Team, and providing a full 3-year warranty on workmanship to the policyholder.
