PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND HOME RESEARCH

PEI Home Insurance: Coastal, Flood, Storm & Wildfire Risk

Property-risk research built around PEI's coastline, inland flooding, Atlantic storms and current FireSmart guidance — without inventing an Island-wide average premium.

Hazard ≠ quote. CHRIS maps, flood zones and FireSmart guidance describe physical risk. The actual premium still depends on the property, insurer, replacement cost, deductible and coverage selected.

COASTAL DATA

PEI offers property-level coastal hazard information

The Province's current climate-hazard tools show coastal and inland flood risk and long-term erosion context. Property owners can also request a Coastal Hazard Assessment. These are useful exposure signals, not insurance-pricing tools.

Wildfire mitigation now has a PEI-specific home layer

PEI's current FireSmart guidance emphasizes the Home Ignition Zone and reducing combustible material close to buildings. The immediate zone begins at the building and extends 1.5 metres.
