Network of Specialists to Help Chubb Customers Protect Their Homes and Save Money
WARREN, NJ, March 23, 2005 – The Chubb Group of Insurance Companies has created the Masterpiece® Protection Network to provide its customers with referrals
to qualified home protection specialists. In addition to helping customers protect their property and families, the service
can save them money.
When customers contact the Masterpiece Protection Network, Chubb will refer them to home security specialists, home inventory
services, loss mitigation services and other protection specialists in their areas. The customers can receive discounts up
to 33 percent from the service providers, as well as premium credits from Chubb.
“By tapping into the relationships Chubb has developed during 25 years of appraisal service, we can refer our customers to
the best and most respected home protection specialists around the country,” said Scott Spencer, worldwide home appraisal
manager for Chubb Personal Insurance. “We are helping our customers protect their property and families while saving them
time and money.”
Spencer said the referral network is a natural extension of Chubb’s residential appraiser service. In addition to helping
customers determine the replacement cost of their homes, appraisers recommend systems and maintenance measures intended to
reduce exposures to fire, theft, water damage and other losses.
Customers who install fire and burglar alarms, moisture detection systems, lightening protection systems, perimeter fences
with electronic gates, power generators and temperature control devices may be entitled to superior protection credits ranging
from two percent to five percent of their policy premium. Depending on the state, a home can qualify for as much as 25 percent
in credits.
Chubb is a leading provider of property and casualty insurance to fine homes, luxury cars, valuable articles and yachts. Additional
