Fire Insurance Coverage Experience & Renewal Survey

Measures how policyholders perceive their fire insurance coverage, pricing, and claims experience, and what drives renewal or switching decisions. Built for insurers and brokers benchmarking product-market fit, with an AI follow-up that reconstructs the real story behind a claim or a low renewal score instead of just the rating.

Opinion ScaleRequired

How likely are you to renew your fire insurance policy with your current provider?

Q10
AI Interview

Explore the reasoning behind the respondent's renewal likelihood score. If they filed a fire-related claim, reconstruct what happened end-to-end: how they reported it, how long payout took, and whether the payout matched expectations. If they haven't filed a claim, probe what would make them trust their insurer to pay out fairly. For low renewal scores, dig into whether the driver is price, a coverage gap, or a bad claims experience, and ask what would change their mind.

Q11
Price Sensitivity (Van Westendorp)Required

Now a few questions about what you'd expect to pay annually for solid fire insurance coverage on your home.

  • At what annual premium would fire insurance coverage feel so cheap that you'd question whether it actually provides adequate protection?
  • At what annual premium would you consider fire insurance coverage a bargain — a great deal for the protection provided?
  • At what annual premium would you begin to feel fire insurance coverage is expensive, though you might still consider buying it?
  • At what annual premium would you consider fire insurance coverage too expensive to purchase, regardless of the protection offered?

Message

That's everything — thank you! Your responses will be combined with others to help improve fire insurance coverage, pricing, and claims support.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Opens with a quick context question on relationship to fire insurance, then an opinion-scale item on how protected the policyholder feels — capturing perception, not just satisfaction.
  • Includes a rating question on policy clarity plus a matrix of agreement statements about the provider, giving structured multi-attribute feedback in one pass.
  • Uses constant-sum allocation and MaxDiff to force trade-offs on what actually drives provider choice, rather than relying on simple rankings.
  • An AI follow-up interview specifically digs into the reasoning behind a respondent's renewal likelihood score (or a recent claim), reconstructing the real story instead of stopping at the number, and pairs with a Van Westendorp pricing series for expected annual premiums.

QuestionPro

Fire insurance survey questions + sample questionnaire template

This is QuestionPro's fire insurance page, pairing a sample questionnaire with explanatory guidance on question types — it reads more like a reference guide than a ready-to-field digital template. It covers similar ground (coverage perception, pricing, claims) but as static, fixed-text items. There's no indication of adaptive follow-up or automated scoring built into the flow.

What it does well

  • Established survey platform with broad question-type library and export/reporting tools
  • Provides sample questionnaire wording specific to fire insurance, useful as a drafting reference
  • Likely customizable within QuestionPro's own survey builder once adapted from the sample

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI interview capability — every respondent sees the same fixed question set regardless of answers
  • No mechanism to probe the story behind a low renewal score or claim beyond follow-up text boxes
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or transparent AI prompt documentation
