New Year, New Coverage: Reviewing Your Lancaster Home Insurance for 2026

The new year is a great time to review your homeowners insurance policy. Our team at Huddleston Insurance Services can guide you through these updates and keep your home covered throughout the year.

Why Review Your Homeowners Insurance Now?

A homeowners insurance review can help confirm that your policy reflects your current circumstances. Over the past year, you may have completed renovations, purchased new valuables or experienced changes in your household. These factors can affect your coverage and influence how well you’re prepared if you need to file a claim.

What Happens If Your Coverage Is Outdated?

An outdated home policy can leave you vulnerable to unexpected costs. If your coverage doesn’t reflect your home’s current value or your belongings, you might face significant out-of-pocket expenses after a loss. In some cases, claims may be partially paid or denied because your policy limits no longer align with your current needs. Regular reviews can help prevent these issues and keep your coverage aligned with your situation.

What Areas Should I Reassess?

Here are items that may require a closer look at your policy:

• Home renovations—Upgrades such as kitchen remodels or new additions can increase your home’s value and may require higher coverage limits.
• Personal belongings—New electronics, jewelry or furniture should be included in your policy so they’re covered.
• Local risks—Shifts in Lancaster’s weather patterns or increased wildfire risks may mean you need additional coverage.
• Policy updates—Insurance carriers frequently adjust policy terms and available endorsements each year. Reviewing your options may help you get new benefits.
