Sometimes these large repair jobs are partially paid for by your homeowners insurance, but it’s very important that you check with your provider to make sure that you have the extra slab and foundation coverage endorsement. This endorsement covers slab leaks, sewer line breaks, and foundation work. Ideally, you should add this coverage BEFORE the need arises, which will be too late. This extra endorsement to your policy is very affordable and far too often not offered or even mentioned when purchasing your policy.
