Customized insurance solutions for Guelph residents
BrokerLink is a full-service insurance brokerage, which means we can help our customers find everything from home insurance and business insurance to farm insurance, auto insurance, and much more. A few of our insurance specialties include:
Home insurance
A home is one of the biggest purchases you will make in your lifetime. For this reason, it’s important to protect it from risks. One way to do that is through homeowners insurance. BrokerLink can help you find a home insurance policy in Guelph that protects your property and its contents in the event of unforeseen circumstances. More specifically, your home insurance policy can safeguard you against third party lawsuits, property damage caused by insured perils like fires, water damage, hurricanes, tornados, power outages, etc., and more. Alternatively, if you currently rent your home in Guelph rather than own it, we can help find you tenant insurance.

Required insurance in Guelph, Ontario
Certain types of insurance, like auto insurance, are mandatory in Guelph. However, others such as home or business insurance may not be. Car insurance is provincially regulated and the Government of Ontario has mandated it throughout the province. So before you get behind the wheel in Guelph, you will need to purchase a valid, up-to-date car insurance policy that complies with provincial law (i.e. a minimum of $200,000 in third party liability coverage, in addition to accident benefits coverage, uninsured automobile coverage, and direct compensation - property damage coverage). Failure to purchase car insurance or to let a past policy lapse can result in fines of up to $25,000 for a first offense and up to $50,000 for a second offense and the suspension of your driver’s licence. Therefore, driving without insurance is simply not worth it.
Next, while home insurance is not legally required like car insurance, some renters and homeowners in Guelph may still be required to purchase insurance. This is because landlords can make tenant’s insurance a condition of a lease agreement and mortgage lenders can make homeowners insurance a condition of a mortgage loan. So if you rent a home in Guelph or purchased a home with a mortgage, you may need to purchase homeowners insurance. Even in cases where insurance is not required, it is often worthwhile for Guelph residents due to the financial protection it offers.
How Guelph insurance premiums are calculated
Insurance companies in Ontario consider a wide range of factors when calculating insurance premiums. For this reason, the cost of insurance varies widely between policyholders. Guelph residents might find it helpful to understand what details influence their rates, so the experts at BrokerLink have put together the following list:
- Your location
- The size of your home
- The make and model of the car you drive
- Your age
- Your insurance claims history
- Your gender
- Your marital status
- The coverages, limits, and deductibles you choose
