This covers repairs to the line itself, plus any excavation and replacement of the excavation. Or is this covered in any of the monthly TV fees?

Thanks!

I often post the same advice, call the villages offices, they are always helpful. If, the person on the phone does not know they will know or will find out WHO to ask. Insurance any insurance is an assessment of the risk vs the cost. I may be wrong, may not have been even the villages. We were offered this insurance somewhere. Low cost insurance means low risk. A common sewer issue is tree roots getting into the line. Typical, insurance-not covered. Typical, repair a cutter sent down the pipe. The, "repair," is temporary.

To make it even more confusing not every village has the same Water, trash, etc company. The rules are not the same.
