Our Reviews
I've always had service handled in a good time frame. Changes for any vehicle paperwork has been done immediately.
I've never had a claim, so I can't comment on any handling in that nature.
I had great experience with Surex agent when I needed to change my insurance policy quickly to accomodate my needs.
They were able to act fast as I requested and I appreciate it very much.
Great job!

Summerside, PEI is the second-largest city in the province with a small population of almost 15,000 people. It is a quaint waterfront community with all the amenities its residents need. It boasts one of the lowest utility, sewer access and property tax rates in the country as well as low real estate prices, making this city both affordable and accessible as living options without compromising on infrastructure. Summerside is home to the Harbourfront Theatre which attracts world-class entertainers and plays host to many festivals and other outdoor events. There is a lot to explore on this tiny island, with the many redeveloped sites turned into parkland as well as the waterfront boardwalk. And, of course, Summerside was the home to fictional character Anne of Green Gables for three years!

Home Insurance In Summerside
Because all insurance companies offer different rates and different coverage types, it’s difficult to say what the ‘best’ insurance company is.

Some of the most popular home insurance companies in Summerside include Economical, Wananesa, Travelers, Royal Sun Alliance (RSA), Intact and Aviva.
The most affordable home insurance provider depends on how your situation fits into the formula companies create to evaluate policyholders. Comparing online insurance quotes with Surex will allow you to get the cheapest price on home insurance and get you the best insurance coverage for your situation.
For homeowners who hold a mortgage, having home insurance is a necessity. This is because banks and mortgage lenders want to know borrowers (i.e. homeowners) have a backup plan in case one of three unfortunate events happens: (1) something happens to the homeowner’s home (either repairable damages or a total loss), (2) someone is inadvertently injured while on the homeowner’s property, or (3) the homeowner accidentally causes damage to another person’s property. A basic home insurance policy will cover a homeowner in any of those three scenarios, and will — by extension — ensure the homeowner will remain financially fit to continue servicing their mortgage.
On the other hand, if you own your residence outright (i.e. you’ve paid off your mortgage), you are not required by any level of government in Canada to hold a home insurance policy. However, when you compare the cost of an annual insurance policy — usually somewhere in the $800 to $1,200 range — to the value of your home and its contents, it becomes clear that protecting your assets is a wise move. Surex strongly recommends home insurance for all homeowners — just be sure to shop around and find a policy that’s affordable!
