Does replacing Poly B fix my insurance?
The straight answer
Yes, with paperwork. A documented full replacement, with the completion certificate, permit and inspection record, takes the home back to standard terms. No insurer publishes a specific discount percentage, so treat any number as marketing; the verifiable benefit is standard insurability.
The longer version
This is the one insurance answer with a clean yes: a full, documented replacement ends the Poly B conversation with insurers. The operative word is documented, meaning the completion certificate stating full removal and the new material, plus the permit and inspection record. The insurance chapter covers the package, and the tracker explains why any specific “premiums drop X%” claim you read has no published source behind it.
