3 Critical Perils Every Ontario Homeowner Must Review
Ensure your policy wording accounts for Ontario's severe seasonal transitions.
Winter Freeze-Thaw & Burst Pipes
When temperatures drop below -15°C, uninsulated exterior plumbing and vacant residences face severe pipe burst risk. Policies require regular occupancy checks when traveling during winter months.
Roof Ice Damming
Snow melting on warm upper roof surfaces and refreezing at the cold eaves creates ice barriers that force water under shingles into ceilings and walls, requiring comprehensive all-perils coverage.
Spring Snowmelt & Sewer Overflows
Rapid spring thaws combined with heavy rains overload municipal storm drains. Adding overland water and sewer backup endorsements is essential to protect finished basement investments.
