Home Insurance London, ON

Home insurance varies depending on your provider and particular policy. Thankfully, the team at HUB International can help you determine the best policy for your home. From minimal coverage to complete protection in nearly any instance, find the best policy that fits your needs.

Just like car insurance, your home insurance in London comes with a variety of options. Determining the best option for you depends largely on your situation, such as the value of your home, the value of your contents and the likelihood of an incident or natural disaster. Learn more about each insurance policy to see which one is right for you:

• No Frills insurance: Just like it says, this is a minimal coverage that can protect your home. It typically doesn’t provide protection in all instances or for your property, so it isn’t the best solution for many homeowners.
• Basic insurance: Often called Named Perils, this home insurance policy protects both your home and property from specified incidents or tragic events.
• Broad insurance: A broad insurance policy provides nearly comprehensive coverage, but names a few specific instances where coverage wouldn’t apply.
• Comprehensive insurance: The most premium and costly coverage you can buy, comprehensive insures both your home and property for most instances. Comprehensive can still name a few exclusions, just like broad insurance.

There are many pros and cons to each level of insurance. If you feel your home is at particular risk of a certain incident, such as flooding or strong wind damage, you may want to include that in your broad or comprehensive insurance policy.

Home insurance can be expensive. Choosing to insure your home may seem like a wise strategy, but costly insurance can drain your savings or cause you to struggle with your daily expenses. At HUB International, we work hard to help you reduce your insurance payment while still maintaining a healthy level of protection. Here are just a few ways you can decrease your London home insurance payment:

• Raising your deductible
• Bundling all your insurance policies
• Asking for any discounts, such as memberships or senior citizen discounts
• Utilizing smoke detectors and security devices

Another way to lower your insurance policy is to avoid making a claim. Despite minor damage to your home, sometimes filing an insurance claim could actually cost you more in the years to come. Ask a professional about instances when you may be better off financially by avoiding making an insurance claim.
