🍂Winterizing Your Cottage - Before you close up for the season, take a few minutes to make sure your cottage is ready for the colder weather. Here are some important winterizing tips to help protect your property and avoid potential insurance headaches.

-Turn off the main water supply and completely drain all pipes, toilets, tanks, and water heaters.
-Add RV/marine antifreeze to toilets, drains, and plumbing traps.
-Disconnect and drain outdoor hoses and exterior water lines.
-If not draining the system, maintain continuous heat at the minimum temperature required by your insurer.
-Secure windows, doors, and outbuildings, and remove valuables.
-Clean gutters, inspect the roof, and clear debris to reduce winter damage risks.
-Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms and replace batteries.
-Arrange regular property inspections if required by your insurance policy.

Important: Many Ontario cottage insurance policies require proper winterization or regular monitoring of unoccupied properties. Failure to meet policy conditions could affect coverage for frozen pipes, water damage, or other winter-related claims. Review your policy or contact your broker for specific requirements.

🍂As summer is coming to an end, it's time to start thinking about winter storage.
Winterizing your boat, stabilizing fuel, and using a proper cover can help prevent costly damage. While you're preparing your boat for the off-season, it's also a great time to review your insurance coverage. Contact your broker today!

Happy long weekend!

Real People. Real Conversations. Real Service.

At Darling Insurance, we believe insurance is about people, not robots.

While many businesses have moved to fully automated service, we still welcome you into our office to speak with a real person who knows your coverage and understands your needs.

To provide you with the best possible service, we recommend booking an appointment in advance. This allows your broker to be prepared with answers to your questions, policy reviews, quotes, and personalized advice before you arrive.

📞 Give us a call to schedule a time that works for you. We look forward to seeing you!
