People helping people
Sometimes the best way to get to know a broker is to hear from their customers. See what people have to say about working with our Eagle Creek team.
“The office on a Saturday is very calm and quiet which really helped with my hearing loss. Not a lot of phones ringing, and the windows insulate well against all the traffic noise on Helmcken. The space is very well laid out and accessible for someone using a mobility aid. We will be returning for all our future insurance needs!.”
“Great staff, have helped me twice getting a motorcycle transferred to my name when things were a little complicated. Highly recommended.”
“I worked with Sid today and had such a wonderful experience with this intelligent and professional young man. He explained insurance to me so clearly and treated me with tremendous respect especially given my genuine lack of understanding. This young man is cut out for great things and I wish him well.”
Part of your community
The Eagle Creek area is a key connection point between Victoria and the Westshore. From our broker on Helmcken Road, we support residents of View Royal, Colwood, Langford, Saanich and the neighbourhoods in between with car insurance, home insurance, business insurance, and more.
Whether you’re a long-time homeowner, commuting between the Westshore and downtown, raising a family or running a business nearby, your insurance should reflect your daily life. A home that backs onto parkland near Thetis Lake may have different needs from a townhome in Colwood, and a contractor heading to job sites each day has questions a retail shop doesn’t.
Your insurance should reflect your home, vehicle, business and how you actually use them. Our brokers can help you take a personalized look at what makes sense for you rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.

Local questions worth asking
Where you live and drive can make a difference to your insurance. From forest-edge homes and a busy highway commute to earthquake risk, our Eagle Creek brokers with Western Coast Insurance Services can help you understand what your policy covers, what it doesn’t and whether additional options are worth considering.
Eagle Creek borders on wildlands. Neighbourhoods surrounding Thetis Lake Regional Park are at the highest risk of wildfires. Home insurance generally includes protection against fire, including wildfire, but it’s worth knowing whether your limits would cover a full rebuild and how long living expenses would be covered if you had to leave.
If a wildfire near the park forced us out, how long would my policy cover our living costs?
Many Eagle Creek customers drive the Trans-Canada between the Westshore and downtown Victoria every day. More time in heavy traffic means more exposure to fender-benders and windshield damage. Basic Autoplan covers the essentials, but optional collision, comprehensive and extended liability coverage can make a real difference after a crash. Your broker can help you match your coverage to your commute.
With my daily highway commute, which optional coverage would make the biggest difference?
Greater Victoria’s earthquake risk applies to homes on the Westshore too. Earthquake damage isn’t generally included in a standard BC home insurance policy, but coverage may be available as an add-on. We can help you understand what it would protect, how the deductible is calculated and whether it makes sense for your home.
Is earthquake coverage worth adding for my home, and what would the deductible be?
Construction and trades businesses are a big part of the Westshore economy. Working on other people’s property, carrying tools between job sites and signing contracts that require proof of insurance all affect the coverage you need. We can help you review general liability, tools and equipment coverage, and the insurance requirements in your contracts.
Does my liability coverage meet what my contracts require, and are my tools covered on job sites?

Your local broker, your questions
Commuting from the Westshore, transferring a vehicle or insuring a home near the park? Here are a few questions Eagle Creek customers often ask.
Our Eagle Creek insurance brokers can help with ICBC renewals and optional car insurance, motorcycle and RV insurance, home and condo insurance, tenant insurance and business insurance, including coverage for contractors. The options available will depend on the insurer, what you’re insuring and your individual circumstances.
You can renew at our Eagle Creek broker at 29 Helmcken Rd #110, close to the Trans-Canada Highway. We’re open Monday to Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., which is handy if you commute during the week.
ICBC Basic Autoplan is mandatory for every vehicle registered in BC. It includes $200,000 in third-party liability coverage, Enhanced Accident Benefits for injury care and recovery, Underinsured Motorist Protection of up to $1 million per insured person, and inverse liability where local laws don’t let you claim against the other driver. Many Westshore drivers add optional coverage such as extended third-party liability, collision and comprehensive. Our brokers can help you review which options fit how you drive.
Underinsured Motorist Protection (UMP) is part of Basic Autoplan. If you make a claim against a driver who caused a crash and they don’t have enough insurance to pay it, UMP covers you and members of your household for claims of up to $1 million per insured person.
Your premium depends on factors like your driving history, vehicle type, how far you drive and the optional coverage you choose. A long daily commute between Langford and Victoria adds kilometres and time in traffic, so it’s worth making sure your optional coverage reflects how you actually drive.
Yes. Our Autoplan brokers can help with vehicle ownership transfers and insuring the vehicle in your name, including more complicated situations. Bring your identification and the vehicle’s documents, and call ahead if you’re not sure what you’ll need.
It can. View Royal’s wildfire plan identifies neighbourhoods around Thetis Lake Regional Park as a high priority for wildfire risk reduction. Home insurance generally covers fire, including wildfire, but insurers may ask about your property and surroundings. FireSmart steps around your home can also help reduce risk. Your broker can help you review your rebuilding limit and living-expense coverage.
No. Standard home insurance in BC does not include earthquake coverage, but it can usually be added as an endorsement. Greater Victoria’s earthquake risk applies to Westshore homes too, so it’s worth reviewing with your broker.
Earthquake coverage typically includes dwelling coverage to repair or rebuild your home, personal property coverage for belongings like electronics and furniture, and loss-of-use coverage for additional living expenses while your home is repaired.
Earthquake deductibles are often a percentage of your coverage limit rather than a fixed amount, so ask us to show you the dollar figure.
Most contracts and many clients will require it. General liability insurance can help if your work causes injury or property damage, and you may also need coverage for tools and equipment. Send us your contract’s insurance requirements and we’ll help you review the limits and certificates you need.
