Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Reassurance, I walk you through how to make your home more resilient in today’s ever-changing risk environment. I’m Chelsea Rabalais, and as your host and a longtime insurance advisor, I’m here to help simplify personal insurance and keep you one step ahead.We cover key risks like wildfires, flooding, hailstorms, power surges, and even electrical fires—and the practical upgrades that not only protect your home but can improve your insurability too. From swapping out cedar shake roofs for Class A fire-rated materials, to installing smart water shutoff valves and devices like Ting that detect electrical hazards before they spark a fire, I highlight tools insurers love and what many homeowners still overlook.I also touch on simple but powerful security measures, like monitored alarms and motion-detecting cameras, that make a big impact on both safety and insurance pricing. Ultimately, resilience isn’t about fear—it’s about preparation.If you're not sure whether your home is as resilient as it should be, talk to your advisor or schedule a full risk review. A little work now could make a big difference down the road. Thanks for tuning in to Reassurance—and remember, I’m always here if you want to talk coverage. Stay safe and stay insured!
