Home Insurance New Brunswick

From the Old Sow to Caraquet, New Brunswick's beautiful beaches, salmon-rich rivers, and lush forests make it a wonderful province to call home. In fact, many Canadians are choosing to move to cities like Moncton, Saint John, and Fredericton to take advantage of New Brunswick's more affordable, relaxed lifestyle. However, climate change has resulted in some right windy conditions, more intense precipitation, and more frequent winter thaws throughout the province. Therefore, if you live in New Brunswick, it's essential that you have insurance coverage to help protect your home from severe weather conditions, including hurricanes, blizzards, and floods.

When you buy a home in New Brunswick, your mortgage provider will require you to have a home insurance policy in place for your closing date. Although home insurance isn't mandated by law like car insurance is, having home insurance means that your biggest investment – your home – is protected against things like water damage, high winds, and fire, as outlined in your policy. Home insurance can help you avoid having to pay a large lump sum to repair your home or replace your belongings as a result of a covered claim. It may also help you pay for additional living expenses if you're unable to live in your home while it's being repaired.

If you live in New Brunswick, we can help you get the coverage you need to protect your home and belongings from most damage caused by the province's unpredictable weather – and other stuff too, like theft and personal liability. Using your MyInsurance online account, you can manage your policies and track your claims 24/7. In fact, more than 29,0005 New Brunswickers trust TD Insurance to protect their homes and belongings.
