Endorse the insured

Explanation:

Remember, an insurance policy is of no use (void) if any adjustments in the contract is not endorsed by the insurer (the insurance company). Since the homeowner added another detached garage and he wants to benefit from coverage and also receive premium credit for the alarm system he will need to get the insurer notified so as to get their approval.
