One of the most important precautions you should take when insuring your instruments is to keep organized and detailed records, should you need to file a claim. This not only helps to resolve your claim rapidly but will also ensure you’re getting proper repair work or a replacement for your specific piano. Be sure to document your piano’s brand, model, serial number, and size. We also recommend having some photographs on record as well, so you have a record of how your piano is aging over time. Not only is your replacement value often determined by this information, but you can also use it to help estimate an appraisal value.
