January 31, 2011

Insured is a tenant in a strip mall. The insured has owned the business since 1988, and her father started the business at this location in 1966. A prior fire in 1987 required total renovation. A claim was submitted to our office for a fire claim, in and around the electrical main service breaker panel. When the insured took over the business in 1988, the electrical service was already in place, no improvements to the service during her years of occupancy. The lease agreement requires that the insured address the repairs. Insured making claim under the improvement and betterment portion of the policy. Is there coverage available under CP 00 10?
