Calgary is a great city with excellent access to nature, but it also endures severe weather and the occasional natural disaster. Protecting your home and other personal assets are important and can help your long-term financial security.
At Acera Insurance, we understand that you need the best coverage for an affordable price. We work with a large number of Calgary insurance companies to provide you with true choice and competition with your insurance. Our Calgary insurance brokers are experts in insurance and dedicated to building a relationship with you.
Home & Contents Insurance
Acera Insurance offers Calgary home insurance to protect your home, belongings, and financial security. This generally includes:
- Liability (if someone is hurt or has their property damaged while at your home)
- Property damage (including your home’s structure, decks and sheds, furniture, and personal belongings)
- Additional living expenses in the event of a mandatory evacuation or a covered claim
We can tailor your Calgary insurance based on your needs and budget. There are many options when it comes to your home and our Calgary insurance brokers can help you determine the coverage you need and get it for a competitive price.
Tenant & Condo Insurance
If you rent or own a condo, your Calgary insurance is a bit different than homeowner’s insurance. Tenant and condo insurance includes:
- Liability
- Property damage to your furniture and personal belongings
- Additional living expenses
You’ll notice that the building isn’t covered – that’s because your landlord or condominium master policy would cover the structure. Some condo policies also cover special assessments – important coverage you should have if you own a condo.
Keep in mind that as a renter, your landlord’s insurance will not cover anything belonging to you. It can be very expensive to replace all of your belongings, and tenant insurance is quite affordable.
A Calgary insurance broker can help you determine the right policy for your rental unit or condo.
Life & Health Benefits Insurance
Acera Insurance provides benefits insurance to Calgarians who need supplemental coverage or do not have coverage from their employer. We offer the following to personal and commercial clients:
- Life Insurance
- Mortgage Insurance
- Critical Illness Insurance
- Disability Insurance
- Dental & Health Insurance
- Travel Insurance
Our travel insurance includes travel medical, trip cancellation and trip interruption, lost baggage, sports, and more for a single trip or multiple trips. These policies can be purchased separately or as part of a package.
Vehicle Insurance
We do a lot of driving in Calgary and it’s essential that we protect ourselves and our vehicles. We work with a number of Calgary insurance companies to provide the following insurance options:

What risks does Calgary face and how can they be mitigated?
Calgary is an amazing place to live but it isn’t without its risks. Floods, hail, tornadoes, winter storms and more can impact the city. Natural disasters and bad weather are unavoidable. Even if you prepare, damage can be done. Plus, there are still risks such as fire, theft and accidents to contend with.
Calgary insurance helps reduce the negative financial impact of such events. When your home, business, or vehicle is damaged, insurance can help mitigate your losses and move forward. But insurance should always be the last line of defence.
Here are some things you can do to protect your assets (and potentially reduce your Calgary insurance premiums):
- Park indoors or under cover during bad weather
- Don’t drive distracted
- Avoid speeding or driving aggressively
- Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Always wear your seatbelt
- Use winter tires
- Drive for the conditions
- Leave an adequate following distance
- Never leave your keys in your vehicle
- Install anti-theft devices in your car
- Build with the weather and fire-resistant materials
- Install smoke and carbon monoxide monitors
- Keep fire extinguishers readily available
- Install a sprinkler system
- Never leave candles or open flame unattended
- Clean your barbeque and never leave it unattended
- Secure loose outdoor furniture and materials
- Store any firewood at least 10m from your home and cover it with a tarp
- Install security systems such as alarms, cameras, and lights
- Install water mitigation measures such as a sewer backup valve, sump pump, and water alarm
- Ensure grading drains water away from the building
- Carry out general home and building maintenance such as shovelling, cleaning eavestroughs, and promptly repairing cracks or damage
These are just a few suggestions to help protect your vehicle, business and home.
