In the insurance industry, the words “full coverage” have more than one meaning. It all depends on who you’re talking to. To an insurance agent, “full coverage” is simply providing enough coverage to fully protect a vehicle for all perils that could cause damage to the vehicle. The first portion of this coverage is comprehensive, which is sometimes referred to as “other than collision.” This coverage will protect the vehicle in all cases where a collision with another vehicle or fixed object does NOT occur. It includes things like vandalism, theft, hitting an animal, and even weather-related losses such as hail. The second portion of “full coverage” is collision. This coverage will protect your vehicle in the event of a collision with another vehicle or a fixed object of some sort – like a guardrail or utility pole. These two coverages combined are what make up “full coverage” on your auto insurance policy, and there is always a deductible associated with claims involving comprehensive or collision. Most people carry $500 deductibles, but you have the option of choosing anything from $50-$1000 with most insurance companies.

More and more Texans are finding out the hard way that they don’t have the coverage they thought they had on their roofs. In recent months, some property and casualty insurers have filed to expand or shift their roofing policy terms to include actual cash value policies. Most of the time, consumers have no idea they have ACV coverage on their roof until they file a claim.
