Home Insurance Quebec

Searching for home insurance that fits your needs? Don't give up! We can help you find coverage to protect your home and belongings from most damage caused by Quebec's winter storms – and other events too, like fire, theft, and falling objects. More than 108,0003 Quebecers have a home insurance policy with TD Insurance.

With vibrant cities, scenic National Parks, and more than a million lakes and streams in the surrounding area, Quebec is a wonderful place to live. But its freezing cold winters and hot, humid summers make home insurance essential for anyone buying a home in the province. Whether you live in Montreal, Gatineau – or call another part of Quebec home, having the right insurance can help protect your home from problems that may arise from frigid winter temperatures, high winds, and melting snow.

Home insurance can help you avoid having to pay a large lump sum to repair your home or replace your belongings due to 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. In fact, your mortgage provider will require you to have a home insurance policy in place for your closing date. As a TD Insurance customer, you can use your MyInsurance online account to manage your policies and track your claims 24/7.
