Here’s What Your Protection Covers

Covers your property from damage caused by a fire, a break-in, or severe wind and hail that can hit Hamilton.
Liability Coverage
Protects your finances if you’re found legally responsible for someone getting injured on your property, or for causing damage to their property.
Water Damage
Covers sudden and accidental water damage. Things like a pipe bursting or a dishwasher overflowing. It also includes specific coverage for sewer backup, a major risk in areas with older infrastructure.
Additional Living Expenses
If a covered event, like a serious fire, makes your home unlivable, this pays for you to stay somewhere else. It covers reasonable hotel and food costs while your home is being repaired.
Personal Property
Covers the stuff you own inside your home. Furniture, electronics, clothes, and appliances are all included. If they are damaged or stolen in a covered event, this protection applies.

FAQs
It can be. Many insurers see old galvanized plumbing systems as a major risk for leaks and will charge higher premiums or deny coverage. As a high risk insurance provider, we can often find a policy, but we’ll want to know the condition of the pipes.
There’s no magic number, but typically two or more claims in a short period, like 3-5 years, will get you flagged. The type of claim also matters; multiple claims for water damage are often viewed more seriously than a single theft claim.
Bundling car insurance and home insurance with one provider is a very common way for people to get discounts. Most large insurance companies in Ontario offer this. Insurely is a specialist focused entirely on providing the best coverage for property, so we do not offer auto insurance.
Yes. While a higher local crime rate is a risk factor that can influence your premium, it does not exclude you from getting coverage for your personal belongings. Installing a monitored alarm system can help offset this risk.
A deductible is the amount you pay out-of-pocket on a claim before your insurance kicks in. Choosing higher deductibles (say, $2,000 instead of $1,000) means you’re taking on more of the initial risk yourself. In return, the insurance company will lower your yearly premium.
A history of missed payments or policy cancellation for non-payment can make it harder to qualify for insurance. However, we review each case individually. We can often find coverage options, though your payment history will be a factor in the final premium.
