Laurentides Insurance Guide is a free, independent information website that helps homeowners, chalet owners, short-term rental hosts, tenants and drivers in the Laurentides region of Quebec understand insurance and shop for it with confidence.
What we do
- We explain how home, chalet, rental and auto insurance work, in plain English.
- We explain what insurance is mandatory in Quebec and what is optional.
- We cover the risks that are specific to the Laurentides: wood heating, wells and septic systems, lakefront properties, seasonal chalets, snow and ice, spring thaw and tourist rentals.
- We give you checklists and questions to ask so you can compare quotes fairly.
What we don’t do
We do not sell insurance. We are not an insurer, a broker, an agent or a comparison platform, and we do not receive commissions from insurers. We do not give personalized insurance advice. For a quote or advice on your situation, contact a damage insurance representative licensed by the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) or your insurer.
How the site is funded
The site is supported by advertising (Google AdSense). Ads are clearly identified and never influence our content.
Part of The Laurentides network
We are part of The Laurentides, an English-language guide to the region, alongside chalet rentals, hotels and roofing contractors.
