    Frequently Asked Questions

    What does commercial property insurance cover?

    Commercial property insurance safeguards your business’s physical assets against a range of risks. This includes protection for:​

    • Buildings and Structures: Covers damage to the physical premises, including walls, roofs, and attached fixtures.
    • Contents: Protects equipment, furniture, inventory, and supplies within the premises.
    • Outdoor Assets: Includes signage, fencing, and landscaping elements.
    • Business Interruption: Compensates for lost income and operating expenses if your business operations are halted due to a covered event.
    • Equipment Breakdown: Covers repair or replacement costs for essential machinery and systems that fail due to mechanical issues.​

    It’s important to note that standard policies might not cover certain perils like floods or earthquakes unless specifically added. Additionally, wear and tear or intentional damage are typically excluded.

    Is commercial property insurance required by law in Ontario?

    While not mandated by law in Ontario, commercial property insurance is often a prerequisite set by landlords or financial institutions. For instance, if you’re leasing a commercial space, your landlord may require you to have this insurance to cover potential damages. Similarly, lenders might insist on it as a condition for financing. Beyond these requirements, having this insurance is a prudent measure to protect against unforeseen events that could disrupt your business operations.

    Who needs commercial property insurance?

    Any business that owns or leases physical space or assets should consider commercial property insurance. This encompasses:​

    Even if your business operations are primarily digital or remote, if you have physical assets or equipment, this insurance provides a safety net against potential losses.

    How much does commercial property insurance cost in Ontario?

    Costs vary depending on location, building size, construction type, security measures, and coverage limits. Small businesses might pay a few hundred per year; larger operations could pay thousands.

    What factors affect my commercial property insurance premium?

    Several key factors influence the cost of your commercial property insurance:​

    • Business Type and Industry: Different industries carry varying levels of risk. For example, a manufacturing facility may have higher premiums than a retail store due to increased operational hazards. ​
    • Location: Businesses located in areas prone to natural disasters or with higher crime rates may face higher premiums. ​
    • Property Characteristics: The age, construction materials, and condition of your building can impact insurance costs. Older buildings or those constructed with less fire-resistant materials may incur higher premiums. ​
    • Coverage Limits and Deductibles: Higher coverage limits increase premiums, while higher deductibles can reduce them. ​
    • Claims History: A history of frequent claims can lead to increased premiums, as insurers may view your business as higher risk.
    • Risk Management Measures: Implementing safety protocols, such as installing fire alarms or security systems, can help lower premiums by reducing potential risks.
    Can I reduce the cost of my commercial property insurance?

    Yes there are several strategies to help lower your commercial property insurance premiums:​

    • Increase Your Deductible: Opting for a higher deductible can reduce your premium. Ensure that the deductible amount is manageable for your business in the event of a claim. ​
    • Implement Risk Mitigation Measures: Installing security systems, fire alarms, and sprinkler systems can decrease the likelihood of claims, leading to lower premiums. ​
    • Bundle Policies: Combining commercial property insurance with other policies, such as general liability or commercial auto insurance, can result in discounts. ​
    • Regularly Review and Update Your Policy: Ensure your coverage aligns with your current business needs. Eliminating unnecessary coverage can reduce costs. ​
    • Maintain a Claims-Free Record: A history without claims can make your business more attractive to insurers, potentially leading to lower premiums. ​

    Consulting with an experienced insurance broker can provide personalized advice tailored to your business’s specific needs and help identify additional cost-saving opportunities.

    What’s the difference between commercial property insurance and business interruption insurance?

    Commercial property insurance covers the physical assets of your business—such as buildings, equipment, and inventory—against risks like fire, theft, or vandalism. It ensures that if your property is damaged, the costs of repair or replacement are covered.​

    On the other hand, business interruption insurance provides coverage for the loss of income and additional expenses if your business operations are halted due to a covered peril. This includes compensation for lost profits, fixed costs like rent and payroll, and expenses related to temporary relocation. It’s important to note that business interruption insurance is not automatically included in standard property policies and typically needs to be added as an endorsement.

    Can I combine commercial property insurance with other business coverage?

    Yes, many insurers offer a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP), which bundles various essential

    This bundled approach simplifies the insurance process and often results in premium savings compared to purchasing each policy separately.
