Frequently Asked Questions

PROPERTY

Your home is insured to the amount of coverage needed to rebuild your home from scratch in the event of a total loss. This factors in things like labor costs, debris removal and material costs. It is often higher because it is serving a different purpose than a tax assessment or a real estate evaluation.

If you need to submit a claim outside of regular business hours, our insurance partners can be contacted 24/7 at the following phone numbers: 

  • Premier Marine, 1-866-462-3650 
  • Travelers Canada, 1-800-661-5522 
  • Portage Mutual, 1-800-340-2439 
  • Westminster Mutual, 1-877-488-6642

Cottage insurance is for people who own a second vacation home that they either use themselves or rent out to tourists. It covers liability as well as coverage for damages or theft.

  • If your property has just been damaged or broken into, the most important thing to remember is to stay calm. You should then check for injuries and contact the police immediately if someone is injured or if you are in danger.
  • Once everyone is safe, you should secure the property by double checking that all windows, doors, and gates are intact. If your property has been severely damaged, contact an emergency claims service provider immediately.
