]]> Does my standard home insurance cover Winnipeg spring flooding or sewer backups? https://galaxyinsurance.ca/faq/does-my-standard-home-insurance-cover-winnipeg-spring-flooding-or-sewer-backups/ Sat, 28 Feb 2026 07:09:15 +0000 https://galaxyinsurance.ca/?post_type=faq&p=1760 No, standard home policies completely exclude the most common types of water damage in Manitoba. You must purchase specific add-ons for full protection. We strongly advise adding “Sewer Backup” and “Overland Water” coverage. These critical policies protect your home and basement from overwhelmed city drains and rapid spring snowmelt.

]]> Do I really need Autopac extension coverage if I already have basic MPI? https://galaxyinsurance.ca/faq/do-i-really-need-autopac-extension-coverage-if-i-already-have-basic-mpi/ Sat, 28 Feb 2026 07:08:24 +0000 https://galaxyinsurance.ca/?post_type=faq&p=1756 Yes, we highly recommend it. Basic MPI Autopac only provides minimum mandatory coverage. This leaves you exposed to high out-of-pocket costs. Extension insurance allows you to lower your standard $1,000 deductible. It also safely increases your third-party liability limits. Finally, it provides crucial coverage for rental vehicles if your car goes into the shop.
