Good questions.
Worth asking.
Is all water damage covered by a home policy?
No general label can answer that. Compare the exact causes, extensions, exclusions, deductibles and limits for your address.
Does a home policy automatically cover my business?
Disclose the work, visitors, equipment and stock. Ask about business-use conditions and whether separate business protection is needed.
Should I tell the insurer before renovating?
Yes. Explain the work and occupancy arrangements in advance and obtain confirmation of any required changes before relying on existing terms.
