What Is ShelterPride, and Why Does It Matter for Narragansett Bay Insurance Company Customers?
NBIC's Shelter Pride program is a risk appraisal and underwriting program that is included for every new policyholder. It includes a visit to your home by a representative to ensure that your insurance policy has all the right features and discounts for you. In short, Narragansett appraises your home to see what it would cost to replace it, and they set your rates accordingly.
In some cases, homes are overinsured. So your premium would go down at no extra cost to you. Narragansett's website also claims appraisers will look for any safety risks and alert you accordingly.
