The Right Approach: Mandate, Communication, and Insurance Let’s delve into the crucial aspects of firefighting costs and insurance. With a growing number of fires and human-caused disasters, financial burdens are mounting. Crop losses, property damage, and liability claims have surged.
Since our establishment in 2017, our independent, well-funded firefighting response group has successfully combated over 1500 fires. The insurance industry has acknowledged our approach, which effectively minimizes damage and associated costs. DFW NPC clients enjoy swift emergency response, with insurance readily covering expenses. However, securing the correct insurance coverage and having a signed contract dealing with mandates beforehand is paramount.
Taking Command of Firefighting DFW Fire and Rescue can lead firefighting operations either independently or in tandem with municipal entities. Delayed responses and insufficient resources can result in devastating consequences and substantial costs. Landowners must secure “liability” coverage, encompassing firefighting expenses on their property—a provision often referred to as the “waterbombing clause.”
To provide insight into insurance policy costs, liability coverage for firefighting on your property starts at just R150 per month, affording R100,000 in coverage. Irrespective of the firefighting expenses, the cost of the fire itself and the damages it produces will be substantial if no action is taken at all.
