What affects the cost of home insurance in Bathurst, NB?

A lot goes into calculating the exact cost of your home insurance (location, age of home, claims coverage, and more), which is why it’s important to speak to Western about your unique situation. We compare home insurance providers across New Brunswick to help you get the best possible coverage and identify opportunities for discounts. 

What types of home insurance are available in New Brunswick?

Cost and coverage varies quite a bit depending on your unique home, which is why it’s a good idea to speak to one of our insurance experts about your situation. Some different home insurance types include:

  • Standard homeowner’s insurance
  • Condo insurance
  • Tenant (renter’s) insurance
  • Rental property insurance
  • Cottage/cabin insurance
  • Mobile home insurance
  • Tiny home insurance

Does my New Brunswick home insurance cover everything?

It depends on the optional coverages you’ve added on. We can help you check your coverage and understand your needs. Usually, home insurance doesn’t automatically cover flooding, earthquakes, wear and tear, or basic maintenance. You may also need to talk to an insurance expert to make sure all valuables in your home are covered, like jewelry or collectibles.

I am very grateful to write this review for Stephanie Paulin, who helped me with my car and homeowners insurance during one of the most difficult times in my life—after the passing of my father. From start to finish, Stephanie was exceptional. She showed a level of kindness, flexibility, and professionalism that truly stood out. Stephanie was super nice. Even when I was overwhelmed with grief and uncertainty, she treated me with warmth and genuine care. She never made me feel like I was just another client. She was patient. I had many questions, some of them repetitive or hesitant. Stephanie always took time to explain, to reassure, and to go through things as many times as I needed. She was flexible. Deadlines, meetings, documents—you name it, she adapted. When I needed to change appointment times or provide information later than expected due to personal circumstances, she always accommodated without making me feel guilty. And above all, she was professional. Her knowledge of insurance matters, clear communication, and attention to detail gave me confidence that things were in capable hands. She kept me informed of all the options, helped me understand what I was signing up for, and made sure everything was set up correctly. Even though I was going through an emotionally heavy period, Stephanie made the insurance process bearable—and in many ways, easier than I could have hoped. I felt supported, respected, and cared for. If you’re looking for someone in the insurance world who will listen, guide you steadily, and treat you like more than just a policy number, I can’t recommend Stephanie enough.
