What We Cover in the Park City Market

High net worth and private client insurance. High-value mountain homes, luxury vehicles, collections, jewelry, wine cellars, and firearms. Park City and Deer Valley properties are not standard homes. They sit at elevation, face wildfire exposure, carry heavy snow loads, and often sit vacant between visits. Standard homeowners policies fall short here. Grit places coverage through Chubb, Cincinnati Insurance, and Selective Insurance - carriers that understand agreed value, guaranteed replacement cost, and the real cost of rebuilding a mountain home.

Vacation and short-term rental coverage. Second homes, vacation homes, and short-term rentals need different coverage than a primary residence. The right policy responds when a renter damages the property, when a pipe freezes while the house is vacant, or when a guest files a liability claim. The wrong one leaves you fighting a denial.

Scheduled valuables and collections. Jewelry, art, wine, firearms, and heirlooms are rarely covered to real value under a standard homeowners policy. Scheduling the items puts agreed value in writing with no deductible on a covered loss.

Custom home builders working Park City mountain projects. When a Park City, Deer Valley, or Wasatch Back build runs $5M, $10M, $30M, the whole transaction changes. Lenders start requiring performance bonds. Owners require $2M+ liability limits before you lift a hammer. Builders risk policies have to carry through two or three winter seasons. Once the owner takes occupancy, the coverage conversation shifts from the builder's program to agreed-value homeowners and scheduled valuables. Grit handles both sides - the builder's bond program and insurance during construction, and the owner's private client package once the home is theirs.

Personal insurance for Park City, Deer Valley, Heber Valley, and Midway residents. Auto, home, umbrella, and everything in between.

Mountain Property Expertise

Wildfire exposure is real and getting worse. Properties in the hills above Park City, Deer Valley, and the Wasatch Back face brush and timber fire risk that standard carriers increasingly refuse to write. Grit works with surplus lines and specialty markets to keep these properties insured when others walk away.

High-value home insurance in this market requires agreed value and guaranteed replacement cost. Not actual cash value. Not a capped limit that falls $500K short when you need to rebuild at 7,000 feet with custom materials. The difference between the right policy and the wrong one here is six figures.

Mountain homes also sit vacant between visits. That changes the risk profile - water damage from frozen pipes, undetected roof damage from snow load, theft during long absences. The right coverage anticipates these exposures.

An umbrella policy sized for the real exposure matters as much as the home itself. A $500 claim on a home policy and a $5M liability event on an auto policy are not the same risk, and the standard $1M umbrella is often not enough for Park City households.
