The unit below mine reported water leak from above to the strata. Strata claimed it's caused by my dishwasher but didn't provide concrete evidence. I contacted SquareOne and they quickly assigned an independent adjuster helping me dealing with strata and the restoration company hired by strata. Although the root cause is indeed found to be my dishwasher, the adjuster has done a great job to prevent strata from overcharging me for the repair cost. In the end, the cost is just slightly above my insurance deductible and I gladly footed the whole bill to avoid premium raise.
Go elsewhere for your insurance needs.
After a claim, they cancelled my coverage for no reason.
Did you know that Ontarians pay, on average, $47/month in homeowners insurance? Looking to change your home insurance or simply want ensure that you do not overpay? Our home insurance quotes are among the most competitive.
My experience with this insurer was really good when the policy was being designed and sold. It’s easy to customize the policy and make changes using the online system. At claim time it was not so great. The company uses independent local adjusters. For our fairly small and straightforward claim following a break in the process from claim to payout took months. When I spoke with the insurer on the phone they just referred me back to the adjuster. The adjuster meanwhile just told me they had submitted the claim. It became very frustrating as nobody could explain what was causing the delay. They got there in the end but it was a poor experience.
I learned the hard way that less is not more. I was sold a policy by their staff by a woman who seemed to lack little knowledge on insurance in general. She failed to fully describe in detail what improvements meant. What it really meant was we won't cover anything in your condo that isn't your contents. I should have listened to my friends when they laughed at who I was insured with
After being insured with them for years, they called me out of the blue and said they cannot cover me any longer because of the type of property I have. I have always at every renewal been upfront about exactly what type of property I have. They then act like they're being SO nice (I call this arrogance) that they're giving me 60 days to find coverage elsewhere. Do they not understand this is their error?
Don't bother if you prefer to have insurance that is reliable and won't throw you to the curb if they make a mistake.

I started shopping around for home insurance, my current company is charging me $79.56/month for my small bungalow. I saw an ad from onesquareinsurance that said most rental homes are around $70.00 per month, so I did an online quote and was blown away by their $245/month quote. I called in and they confirmed that was their correct amount. I thanked the gentleman on the phone and hung up. This is by far the most expensive quote I have had yet.
I have been insured with the company for a few years now. Their premium may be competitive at first. But that is more of a bait. Unlike other companies that lower the premium for claim-free clients as a reward, they jack up prices at a rate of about 10% annually. I have decided to switch at some point.
Zero information of what your policy actually is and no customer service. Watch out for what your policy ACTUALLY covers. Found out nothing was covered. IT'S A SCAM. You pay for what you get people!!!!

We selected Square One because this company proposed the best insurance with very reasonable rate. I had several conversation with different agents and always received a very professional and useful advices. I made a mistake in my policy and people from Square One helped me to fix it and provided refund in spite of insurance company had no obligation to fix my error. I would recommend this company to other people
We have 6 ft of snow in North Bay On. The roof leaked and they brought in a Contractor claiming I am covered. The estimate was 20,071.38 but they can not fix my home for 4 months. Offered me cash of 9,456.65. I said: bring in the construction crew, and they responded by saying: you are no longer covered. Please do not be fooled by their prices. If You put in a claim, pay 1,000.00 and then find out there is another 30% depreciation clause. Worst of the worst. I spoke to the owner and he does not care about his customers. I intend to make this a mission of injustice.
