Typical claim outcomes on Brock policies
Sudden events (storm, animal, appliance failure) usually settle at $229–$367 minus deductible. Gradual wear (freeze-thaw over years) is almost always denied — document the triggering event carefully.

Common questions
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Brock?
Yes. Condo boards in Brock typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
Do you offer same-day winter prep in Brock?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Brock for most standard scopes.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
When's the best time of year for winter prep in Brock?
Late September through mid-November with Brock averaging 152cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
What warranty do you offer on winter prep in Brock?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Do you need a permit for winter prep in Brock?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Brock. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Is winter prep covered by home insurance in Brock?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
