Massachusetts H1225 mandates insurance companies to provide homeowners with ample notice before conducting inspections.

Massachusetts H1225 requires insurance companies to notify homeowners by certified mail at least 30 days before inspecting their premises. The notice must include the date and a three-hour window for the inspection. Inspectors must be licensed and show their credentials upon arrival. After the inspection, inspectors must show homeowners any photos taken during the inspection. The bill also prohibits insurers from canceling policies or demanding full roof replacements due to fewer than 10 deteriorated shingles.
