Risks Ahead. Homeowners can appeal an insurance cancellation or non-renewal to the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.
The Pennsylvania Insurance Department is available to help homeowners adhere to reasonable requests by insurers to make their properties safer and avoid possible cancellation or non-renewal of their homeowners’ coverage.
According to a review of consumer complaints received by the Insurance Department, some consumers have had their homeowners’ insurance cancelled or non-renewed after not taking action when their insurer identified a hazard on their property.
By ensuring that homeowners understand their rights and responsibilities, the Insurance Department believes it can help consumers avoid most policy cancellations and non-renewals.
As the Insurance Department’s first priority is consumer protection when considering cancellation and non-renewal appeals, the Department ensures the insurer’s requests are reasonable, and the homeowner was given sufficient time to make repairs. But, according to the Insurance Commissioner, insurance companies have a right to manage the risks they insure on a property — within reason.
