SOP before renovation.
by: Christine Zafra
If you feel that your kitchen is getting smaller with all the new appliances you buy every month (let’s say, Home TV Shopping is fun), and wish to expand it, don’t just rush to your local contractor and tell him or her to do this and that. Or better yet, there are some owners who wish to save on contractors and do the renovation by themselves (i.e. kitchen sink). Let’s take the kitchen sink for example. You want to replace your sink in the kitchen so you started whacking the sink edges and the underside. Now, you busted a pipe that wetted the floor and some of your appliances. You cannot file a claim to your insurance provider about the said damage because the SOP is for you to inform your insurance company before you do something to your house.
