5 Real-Life Claims That Show Why Home Insurance Matters
5 Real-Life Claims That Show Why Home Insurance Matters
From burst pipes to electrical fires, these stories prove why choosing the right policy—and local agency—can be the difference between disaster and peace of mind.
1. The Winter Pipe Burst
Imagine coming home after a holiday trip to find your basement flooded from a frozen pipe. One Frankfort family faced this exact nightmare—ruined flooring, soaked appliances, and thousands in damages. Their home insurance policy with Wilkins Insurance covered emergency cleanup, repairs, and even the cost of temporary lodging.
Key Lesson: Water claims are among the most common—and most expensive—for Illinois homes. Having local, expert-guided coverage can quite literally save your home’s foundation.
2. Kitchen Fire Chaos
An Orland Park client experienced a sudden grease fire while cooking. Flames spread to cabinets and the ceiling before firefighters arrived. Thanks to their comprehensive policy, all damages—including smoke remediation and new appliances—were handled fast and fully covered.
Key Lesson: The true cost of fire isn’t just rebuilding; it’s also about cleaning and restoring your family’s safe haven. Insurance built on understanding local risks means you’re never left to fend for yourself.
3. Stolen Valuables, Quick Relief
After a weekend trip, a Mokena homeowner discovered a break-in—their irreplaceable jewelry and electronics had vanished. Because Wilkins Insurance had helped them catalog their valuables, the claim was resolved swiftly, restoring losses within days.
Key Lesson: Documenting your belongings with your agent makes a huge difference at claim time. A coverage-minded agency means less stress, faster payouts, and real human support when it matters most.
4. Storm Damage from Illinois Weather
Severe storms hit Tinley Park, leaving downed trees and roof damage. One client had bundled coverage through Edward Wilkins Insurance—which meant emergency roofers were dispatched that night and all repair bills handled without fighting for reimbursement.
Key Lesson: Local support is everything. You don’t want a call center, you want someone who knows Illinois weather—and has your back the moment the storm clears.
5. Liability in the Backyard
After a neighbor’s child slipped on a trampoline and broke an arm, a New Lenox client feared major legal bills. With the right liability protection, Wilkins Insurance ensured medical payments and legal assistance were provided—no long court battle, no out-of-pocket losses.
Key Lesson: Liability claims can be life-changing. A cheap, online policy might miss these gaps. Local agencies know the real risks in your neighborhood and design protection for your lifestyle—not just your house.
