It is so imperative that you first research the basic fundamentals of the insurance policy, starting with the declarations page (or "dec page"). You need to understand the maximum available coverage amounts for each section. You need to know whether the policy will pay "replacement cost value" (RCV) or "actual cash value" (ACV).
