🛠️ RENOVATED THIS SUMMER? Don’t forget your insurance.

Unreported upgrades can reduce the amount your insurer will pay to rebuild your home after a total loss.

Even if you’ve paid for Guaranteed Replacement Cost, that protection can be voided if changes to your dwelling haven’t been disclosed.

And in today’s market—where rebuild costs are often higher than your policy limit—that could leave you seriously underinsured.

📞 Let your broker know what’s changed.
It could mean the difference of many thousands of dollars.

👀 Follow us to hear more practical insights FROM THE BROKER’S DESK to help protect what you’ve worked so hard to build.

Ignorance is likely not bliss when it comes to a claim scenario.

Make sure you notify your insurance broker/agent prior to any renovations. If the construction details of your house are not accurate with your insurance company, it can be very costly in the event of a loss.

Is it time to book a review? Make a note to remember to ask your broker/agent what is recorded in their file for the construction characteristics of your dwelling and outbuildings.

🏠 FROM THE BROKER’S DESK

“I didn’t know my tenant should carry insurance too!”

It’s one of the most common misunderstandings we hear from landlords.

👉 Many assume that if they’ve insured the building, the tenant is covered too.
But here’s the truth:

A landlord’s insurance covers the building and their own liability.

It does not cover the tenant’s personal belongings, liability, or additional living expenses if they have to vacate due to an insured scenario.

And on the flip side?
If a tenant causes damage to the property (like a kitchen fire or water overflow), a landlord’s insurer may go after the tenant for the costs.

That’s why we strongly recommend both landlord and tenant policies. It protects everyone involved and it can often be written right into the lease agreement.

If you’re a landlord (or a tenant), we’re happy to help you understand your side of the responsibility.

🏡 FROM THE BROKER’S DESK

“Ever heard of by-law coverage?”

If you haven’t, you’ll be glad you have now.
It’s often an optional add-on that isn’t expensive, but can make all the difference.

Let’s say your home suffers major damage from a fire or windstorm and your insurance covers the repairs…

But what if a municipal by-law or building ordinance requires the rebuild to meet newer standards?

That’s where By-Law Coverage steps in.

It helps pay for the additional cost to bring your home up to current code after a covered loss.

Some real-world examples:
• Mandatory electrical upgrades
• New insulation standards
• 2”x4” framing must now be 2”x6”
• Septic system for new build (Yikes!)
• Foundation (common for cottages).
…and more.

❗ Without this coverage, you could be personally out thousands of dollars.

The good news? It’s often solved with minimal additional premium. Ask about it.
