The average cottage water damage claim in Ontario is $42,000. 24/7 leak sensors placed at the highest-risk points catch the leak the moment it starts, before it becomes a claim at all.
$599 one-time sensor install. No contracts. Cancel anytime.
None of them announce themselves. All of them keep running until someone notices. Older supply lines make it worse, so it is worth a minute to check whether your cottage still has Poly B plumbing.
Leak-specific hardware, alert pathways, and response, all part of one service.
Every property gets sensors at the highest-risk points: under kitchen and bathroom sinks, at the water heater drip pan, behind the washing machine, at the toilet base, and at the main water supply. For waterfront or multi-level properties we add more as needed.
Sensors trigger the instant they detect water. The alert hits your phone in under 60 seconds via SMS and push notification. If we don't hear from you within 10 minutes, we call you.
Read your policy, because the wording varies by insurer. Of the 10 Ontario insurers we checked, all list a monitored alarm as an accepted alternative to in-person checks, and we confirmed 5 of those against the policy wording itself. What we can promise is the artifact: a timestamped leak and temperature log you can hand a broker or an adjuster. Whether your insurer also discounts the premium is a question for them. We are not insurance advisors.
We don't do plumbing directly, but we coordinate a local plumber within our network. For after-hours emergencies we've had a plumber on site within 90 minutes. You only pay the plumber's invoice, no coordination fee.
Our gateway has a 3-day battery backup and cellular connection. Even with the property's power and internet down, the sensors keep reporting. A power outage is actually when leaks are most likely: pumps stop, pipes freeze, then the thaw causes the burst.
Yes. Leak sensors integrate into the ChaletGuard platform. Current ChaletGuard customers can add additional leak sensors at any time. If you're on a third-party system, we can assess compatibility.
