Travelers Canada’s home warranty. Protecting builders and homeowners since 1999.

Whether you need to protect your biggest investment from unforeseen structural defects, or provide peace of mind to your buyers, trust the financial strength, diversity of products, and excellent service of Travelers Canada’s industry-leading home warranty line.

What do new home warranties cover?

For home buyers purchasing a newly built home, a new home warranty provides peace of mind. The warranty itself can cover a variety of construction defects that might take several years to appear or become a problem. For builders and developers, offering new home warranties on the properties they build can insure them against liability for construction defects. Travelers Canada offers 2, 5 and 10-year (2-5-10) new home warranties in British Columbia and Saskatchewan, while new home warranties for properties in Alberta are available as 1, 2, 5 and 10-year (1-2-5-10) policies.

Travelers Canada’s new home warranty policies are underwritten by St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company (Canada Branch), and are only offered in Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan.
