Protection for valuable pieces of artwork and other similar items that a business owns.
The Andover Companies Fine Arts Coverage may help a business pay for repairs, restoration, or replacement of high-end artwork and other expensive decorative items if a loss occurs due to a covered event, such as a fire, water damage, accidental breakage, or natural disaster.
Many businesses and building owners invest in artwork and other upscale items to elevate the look and feel of office spaces and common areas, like lobbies or hallways. However, these valuable pieces, especially in high-traffic areas, are susceptible to numerous loss risks.
If art is damaged, misplaced while being moved or while in storage, or stolen, it is usually not covered up to its full value under Business Property Insurance, leaving the owner responsible for paying to repair, restore, or replace individual pieces or, after a catastrophic event, potentially a whole collection.
The necessary amount of coverage depends on the value of the collection or individual pieces being insured and the valuation method used to determine it. The Andover Companies Fine Arts Endorsement offers coverage on an Agreed Value basis. This is a predetermined reimbursement amount that is established using either the original price paid for items or a professional appraisal of each piece or the whole collection.
If you have any questions, your local insurance agent is a great resource. They may be able to assist you with valuing your pieces and potentially identifying ones that should be listed individually due to their high worth.

I highly recommend insuring with them.”
“You can truly understand the value of your home insurance when you have a claim. My husband and I experienced firsthand how easy it was to work with The Andover Companies.
