Dogs are also a liability. If you have any one of the following dogs a 25% surcharge will be added to the Texas home insurance policy per animal: Rottweiler, Pit Bull or Pit Bull Mix, Wolf or Wolf Hybrid, Presa Canario and Akita.

Swimming Pools are fine as long as there is an approved, locked fence around the yard.

Diving Boards are unacceptable risks. Most Texas insurance companies will not be willing to sell you a home insurance policy.

In Home Day Cares are subject to a 300% surcharge even with a commercial policy in force. Most insurance companies do not want to write the policy if there is a business run out of the home.
