Chubb homeowner's coverage highlights

Extended Replacement Cost
This covers the full cost of rebuilding your home after a covered loss, even if the cost exceeds your dwelling coverage amount. In the event of a total loss, you may choose to rebuild your home at another location with coverage up to your policy limit (a standard industry policy does not allow rebuilding at any location other than the original).

Cash Option Replacement
You are not required to repair or replace your property after a covered loss, but may choose a cash settlement instead, up to the coverage amount (a standard industry policies will not have this option).

Replacement Cost on Contents
This covers the full cost of replacing your contents after a covered loss, up to your policy's limits. This coverage even applies to rare or antique items (coverage on rare or antique items not on a replacement cost basis unless scheduled appropriately).

Special Contents Coverage
This provides specific protection for a range of valuable possessions including: money, furs, silverware, stamps and coins, jewelry, securities, trailers, and watercraft.

This provides protection for your home and contents damaged by the back-up of sewers or drains (usually an additional premium under a standard homeowners policy).
