Home Insurance
Whether you rent or own, it’s important to get insurance to protect your residence and belongings.
Choose the right home insurance for you:
Building the perfect plan for you
Our coverage options ensure every corner of your home is protected-from your living room to your garden shed. We'll also put your mind at ease with personal liability insurance and cover for identity theft.
Included in your Home, Condo or Tenant Policy:
Comprehensive Coverage
If your house gets damaged in a way that's mentioned in your policy, we'll cover the costs. We'll also cover your additional living expenses if you have to move out temporarily during repairs after an insured loss.
Liability
If someone accidentally gets injured on your property, we’ll help you cover the cost of damages. You can choose between $1 million or $2 million in coverage.
All-Risk
With All-Risk, we don’t just cover your house—we’ll also cover your sheds and garages, and more. Coverage is all risk, meaning you will be covered for loss or damage other than from perils that are specifically excluded.
Specialty Items
If you have any items in your home that are especially valuable, we’ll cover them. This could include jewellery, art and more.
Identify Theft
Getting your identity stolen could result in financial losses from legal fees, identity restoration fees, and lost wages. So we’ll protect you financially for up to $30,000.

Yes. You may want home, condo, tenant, cottage or rental insurance. There are different types of cover available in each category. There are also "add-on" features, depending on your personal circumstances. You'll want to consider how much insurance you need, and the deductible too (your portion of an insured loss), as this will affect your premiums.
Your Service Specialist can help you consider the options and pick the one that's right for you.
Your insurance should at least cover:

- The cost to replace your personal property
- Protection against liability claims
