FAQs
Do I need insurance for my home business?
Yes. Standard Home Insurance does not usually cover business-related activities and a claim could be refused if you haven’t disclosed your business use. If a client visits your home and is injured or your business equipment is damaged, you could be personally at risk for the expenses. However, if your business is very low risk with no visitors and equipment, you may be able to add a small endorsement to your Home Insurance. It’s best to ask an advisor to make sure you’re covered.
How much Commercial Property Insurance do I need?
There is no one-size-fits-all number. The amount you need depends on the value of your business assets and your unique risks. A PIB advisor will make sure you have the most appropriate coverage.
Do commercial tenants have to pay Building Insurance?
In most commercial leases, Building Insurance is paid by the landlord who usually passes the cost to the tenant(s) through the lease as operating costs or additional rent. This coverage does not cover the tenant’s legal Liability Insurance, General Liability Insurance or your contents.
