I immediately called the agent to complain. They quoted a price and did not honor it. The agency explained that the underwriter had added the increase because my house has "more than 10% hip roof area". I was furious and told them I would not renew or give them my car or any other insurance business. In all fairness, they went back and argued my case with Allstate and I got a refund. I'll stay with them and see what happens at renewal.
That's odd, penalizing for hip roof area. They usually like to see hip roofs vs. gable roofs.
