Both Jennifer and Dean have been so wonderful to deal with for all our insurance needs.They take the time to explain all of our options and answer any questions we may have . They are always very responsive and promptly return calls and emails. Provinding an all around great customer experience.

Mark Eaves

Great service with a very friendly and experienced broker. They worked very hard to find me the most competitive rates for my home, cottage, and family vehicles. I've been with them for a couple of years now and I've been very impressed with how proactive they are at renewal time to ensure that I'm getting the best coverage. I've also had to make many changes over the last year across all my policies (changing vehicles, making renovations to the cottage, etc.) and they have been very responsive at applying these changes as soon as possible. Definitely recommend checking these guys out!

Tracy Van Ryn

Outstanding service!!!

Robert Martin

We have known Darren McCaskie since we came to Canada 5 years ago. Darren always goes the extra mile for his customers. We recently had a potential problem with our car insurance. Darren caught it and dealt with it before we even knew! Thanks Darren

Dean Coulter is a new homeowner's best friend! Having recently purchased a farm east of Maynooth and not knowing anyone, aside from my realtor and a few friends, I leaned heavily on Dean for advice and guidance, to be certain I was getting the right coverage for my farm, now and in the future. Dean and his colleagues made the process easy to manage, and he took the time to answer all my questions. When I purchased another vehicle, he was right there when I needed him, getting me excellent coverage and making me feel like a valuable customer. If you live in the area, you may hear his radio spots on Moose FM. Make a point of contacting him first when you are looking for new coverage, or if you want to switch insurance providers. Life is tough enough without having to sweat over which insurance policy is best for you. Let the experts handle it, you'll be grateful you did.

I have been with this company for 20 years of varying insurance needs from home, auto to atv, landlords insurance and contents for storage. Darren McCaskie has always helped, gone above and beyond expectations, he even reached out to me when I had neglected to update my license when renewing my plates which the licence office didn't even mention to me. He certainly saved me from what could have been an expensive fine if caught driving :) Michelle Dausett was invaluable in my decision making process when I seeking quick quotes for cars as I was shopping for a new vehicle. I love the multifaceted communications approach, the ease of seeking information and the ability to get quick responses from all avenues which include calls, emails, messaging and texting. McDougall Insurance - Bancroft has streamlined the process and have hired incredible staff which makes arranging insurance a much easier administrative process than with any other provider I use corporately. I can tell you that every single encounter with this business has proven to be a successful, worthwhile endeavor and I would highly recommend them for all of your insurance needs. When in doubt, it is always worth a comparison to your current provider.

Lisa Haley

Darren Mcaskie is amazing. His work is fast, reliable and the quotes are beyond reasonable. I would highly recommend Darren.

Darren is always hard at work looking to meet our insurance needs and requests. He does so in a professional, courteous, and timely manner.That is why we continue to employ his services even though we have moved 5 hours away to London.

Melanie Parks

I have been obtaining insurance for several years through McDougall Insurance Bancroft. Darren McCaskie along with the team are always very helpful and quick to respond. Recently Darren went above and beyond for me, assisting me with questions I had during a weekend and after hours! That is great customer service! I would recommend this team to anyone!

Stacey Vetzal

Great to work with, attention to detail, very friendly and quick to respond. Worked with us through a bunch of insurance and mortgage changes, got us better rates than we had before, and really understood some of the challenges of rural living like getting our address correct, which sounds obvious but really really isn't when the postal databases keep putting your location somewhere other than where your house actually is, and big city folk have never had to deal with such an error. Wish other companies had these kinds of insights.

Candice Wylde

I've been working with McDougall Insurance for the majority of my adult life and I've never had a bad experience. Car insurance, changes and additions, tenant insurance, marriage, kids and separation. My personal broker Darren, has always been available and always done anything he could to assist me and to get the best rate! I couldn't be happier with the service I've been provider with McDougall!

Chris Baker

When I moved to Bancroft several years ago a family member recommended that I ask for an insurance quote from McDougall. Not only did Darren save me money, his customer service is superior to any I have ever seen. He always goes above and beyond, and now takes care of all my insurance needs. I now always recommend Darren to all my friends and family, and they are always well taken care of.

Glenna Hemphill

Dean was recommended to us by a close family friend and he didn't disappoint. He was prompt with responding and went above and beyond to help find affordable insurance for our two teenagers who purchased their first vehicles, in addition he helped save us with our home and auto insurance. We are very please with the service and will recommend Dean to friends and family.

Marilyn Dillon

We were searching for new insurance as we felt we were paying too much with the broker we had and we were pleasantly surprised to find out that Darren McCaskie was able to find us not only better coverage but at a reduced rate. Darren didn't rush us through our appointment (even though I was an hour late) and he explained everything thoroughly to us. I would recommend Darren and McDougall Insurance.

Ashley White

Darren got back to me right away about a payment issue and I did not feel as though I was bothering him at all. He was very easy to work with around my busy schedule and I will definitely work with him again in Bancroft.

Jaggar McCormack

This was my first time buying car insurance and I could not have had a better experience. Darren Mccaskie could not have made the situation any better. He was very quick to get me set up with my insurance, he was great to talk and deal with and he got me a very reasonable rate. I would highly recommend Darren to anyone that is looking to have a very flawless experience when it comes to purchasing insurance.

Jason Bay

I have used McDougall Insurance in Bancroft for all my insurance needs (auto, renters) for over 10 years now and have dealt with Darren McCaskie as my agent. Darren and McDougall have been wonderful in helping me secure the lowest rates with the best coverage for what I need and have gone above and beyond in quoting me insurance prices when car shopping and making sure I understood legislation changes regarding insurance. Darren has always made himself available to me and has showed a true desire to want to make sure I have the best product possible for my needs and when he is not available he makes sure another agent can look after anything that might come up. I would recommend Darren and the rest of the team at McDougall in a heartbeat.

Stephanie Roberts

Dan Wheeler

I have been dealing with McDougall Insurance in Bancroft since about 2012 with Darren McCaskie as my broker for auto and home insurance and have never been disappointed. There have have been several changes in my insurance needs over this time and Darren was always efficient and helpful. A perfect example was this morning when I contacted him about some changes and requested information by email. Within 5 to 10 minutes I got an answer.

Justin Bryan

Darren and the team at McDougall Insurance in Bancroft have been great since I came aboard 2 years ago and 2 cars ago. Every time I need adjustments or to change anything Darren McCaskie is always prompt when returning with the answers to the questions I have and always there when I need to make any changes. I strongly suggest if you are looking to purchase a policy as new insured or if you are maybe looking for a better premium I suggest starting your search at McDougall Insurance Bancroft and give Darren and his team a shot, as you may not want to look further after that. Best quotes best rates..and service that suprecedes everyone in my eyes. Thanks Darren for being my outstanding broker for the past few years and many years to come.. Sincerely Justin Bryan

Bri Quinn

I have just purchased my first home and was given the recommendation to use Darren as my broker for finding home insurance. Darren made the process as smooth and easy as possible. He was always available to answer questions in a timely manner, and was never pushy with any extra services! It was an overall great experience! I look forward to future dealings.

Terry B

Darren McCaskie was referred to us by an acquaintance. Our previous broker provided no value-added service, so we decided to talk with Darren about our car, condo, and cottages. It did not take long for us to realize how knowledgeable, efficient, and reliable he is. Darren reworked all of our insurance, resulting in better coverage and very significant savings. Every aspect of our dealings with Darren has been exceptional.

Nicole Beaudin

He was amazing to work with! He was quick and helped me get the best rate so late in the day. I had a deadline and he exceeded my expectations. I’m fully insured this morning. Couldn’t be happier. Great service. Thank you Darren and McDougall.

Sarah Walker

Mcdougall is a great insurance company. We dealt with Darren Mccaskie when we switched our home insurance. He is very knowledgeable and efficient. He made the process of switching insurance companies very easy. We recommend him to all our friends and family!

Savanaugh Fraser

Best Deal of the year so far. Dean Coulter beat everyone else by a mile. Very happy and very impressed. Thank you so much Dean!

regina mcanerin

Coming from a small town we are a hands on couple who like to meet whom we are dealing with. After we met with Darren McCaskie from McDougall Insurance we felt quite comfortable. The service was friendly and very informative. He walked us through our policies both home and auto's which gave us the information we needed to feel comfortable. Would highly recommend.

Carrie Moss

We have been a client of McDougall Insurance for years, with Darren McCaskie as our broker. We could not ask for a better broker and as such remained a client even after leaving Bancroft. Darren is extremely helpful and goes above and beyond to assist his clients.

Jeff Knapper

Darren McCaskie of McDougall Insurance in Bancroft ON has looked after my home and vehicle insurance needs. I compared with other firms and am saving on all. Darren even hand delivered our vehicle policy documents.

Tracy Coe

Exceptional service from Darren and the team at McDougall Insurance & Financial-Bancroft. Darren is always on top of it getting us the best coverage at the best rates!

Kim Duncan-LeCoure

Excellent service from Darren McCaskie, the broker at McDougall Insurance. He answers questions promptly and is very knowledgeable. He presents options and is open to discussion. Darren is very personable and is a pleasure to deal with.

JIm Anderson

Darren McCaskie was quick to respond to our need to have insurance for a new house. The closing of our house would not have happened without his help. He also followed up with us to make sure that everything would happen on time.

Peg Ramcharan

Dean was very professional and knowledgeable. He was able to quickly find me alternative insurance at a significant savings. He was very responsive and answered all my questions and made the transition over to the new plan seamless. I would highly recommend working with McDougal Insurance and in particular with Dean. We are about to purchase a new vehicle so I will be chatting with him again soon!

Mary Vanderpas

We had a very positive experience when we met with Dean Coulter. Once all the preliminary reviews were completed Dean went through a very detailed analysis of our insurable items and went to work to find the best rates that would meet our requirements. After presenting the breakdown we were amazed that would be saving hundreds of dollars against our prior company who we had been with for over 25 years. We asked our son to get his insurance evaluated and again saved literally hundreds of dollars a year in costs. There is no question that Dean and the McDougall Insurance group spend the time and resources to get their clients the best rates. We recommended that you take the time to call and have your insurance evaluated by Dean and his team. You will not be disappointed.

Kody Jordan

Darren McCaskie at McDougall has gone above and beyond for me and my family without hesitation time and time again. Would not hesitate to recommend him to anybody. Insurance can be stressful but Darren takes all of that away! 5/5 every time.

Dawn Price

Had a great Insurance experience with Darren McCaskie from McDougall Insurance in Bancroft. He was very professional, answered my emails, in a very timely manner, and explained everything in detail. I would recommend if your looking for Insurance to check McDougall out and definitely ask for Darren at the Bancroft office.

Alan Law

After having placed insurances for all of my Vehicles with McDougals brokerage, it quickly became apparent I was dealing with a truly independent and service oriented dedicated team of professionals. Troy McQuade is a real 'jump to the pump' guy who fitted me up seamlessly and treated me like an actual person, not just a number or a walking wallet. His personable style really reflects the brokerage motto of 'real people dealing with real people'. As my service rep it only takes a single cal and Troy will take it from there, saving me the painfulness of being pushed from pillar to post I've found at other brokerages which are mere sales function for behemoth companies. I cannot speak highly enough of him. The quality and simplicity of my experience with Troy led me to place both my properties in the capable hands of McDougals. On the Friday afternoon before renewal day the following Monday, Troy took my desire to place the properties with McDougals to his senior colleague Dean Coulter, to write policies for the two properties. Troy began the process at the busy month end and passed the baton to Dean, who worked through the weekend in order to hut the deadlines needed for successful placement. The quality of the teamwork I saw was astonishing. I feel proud of myself for having made the RIGHT choice of brokers who indeed were and continue to work diligently and above and beyond the call of duty on my behalf. These people are a credit to the truly independent brokerage industry.

Nancy Mackie

Dean Coulter was recommended to us by a Local Heating Contractor. I was at my wits end due to finding out that the furnace in the house we were purchasing needed to be replaced or under contract before we could get home insurance to close. Dean was calm, professional and helpful in every way. He went above and beyond to help us secure affordable insurance so we could close on our home.

Tim W

Amazing customer service and attention to detail. I dealt with Dean Coulter who is great. He explained everything clearly, and helped me get the right amount of coverage for the right price. It's nice dealing with someone that works for me and not the insurance company. Thanks so much for your help!

heidi abbott

My husband and I are moving up to the Bancroft area from the city, and wish to deal a local broker for our auto and home insurances . I contacted Mc Dougall Insurance and dealt with Darren McCaskie. He was very friendly and courteous . He looked into policies that fit our needs and was very quick getting back to me with quotes. I would highly recommend him to any of our friends and family. Thank you for a good job Darren. Wendy Lawson Abbott

Mark Ellison

McDougall Insurance is the best! Darren is fantastic and is always there to help and get you the best price for insurance possible! Willing to help you in any way he can just great to work with! thanks again Darren

Justin Vanderheyden

We were referred to Darren McCaskie by another local business. We couldn't be happier with how accommodating, friendly and professional the service was. He got us a cottage quote that was 1/3 of what we got with our own insurance company that we have been with for 25 years. Now we are considering moving all our business over.

Geoff Wood

I’m very happy to have my insurance with McDougall’s. My broker Darren McCaskie has given me great customer service and is always available for questions.

Cindy Fugaccia

My husband & I moved into the area last year & truly believe in supporting local businesses. We saw the signs for McDougall Insurance in town & I contacted Dean. We are extremely happy with Dean & Angela, pleased & relieved that I chose McDougall Insurance as our broker!! Keep up the great work & quick/prompt response times!!

Mike Howran

We have been dealing with Darren McKaskie at the Bancroft branch of McDougall Insurance for just over a year now. The service he provides is simply outstanding. Every inquiry, change, quote is handled VERY promptly and professionally, but most importantly personably. On one occasion, Darren hand delivered a proof of insurance slip to me within 30 minutes of contacting him with the request.....a far cry from the impersonal service we had received with our prior provider where each call would take over an hour which included being placed on hold several times by the call center attendant. Darren has been able to secure the most competitive quotes and has provided guidance on what insurance coverage will best serves my families' needs....in addition to enjoying greater coverage, we also saved a significant amount of money. Darren and the McDougall team are real pleasure to deal with.

Rosemary Wynott

The challenges our insurance requirements presented were somewhat unique. Dean Coulter and the team at McDougall Insurance - Bancroft kept at the task until they had packages that suited our situation. Well done team!

Al Whitney

Darren provided excellent service - he went above and beyond to help me find the best and most economical fit.

Dean & Tina McMann

Super friendly and gets back to you right away!

Charlene Nulty

Shouting out a very special THANK YOU to Darren McCaskie of McDougall. I had a client from the city here to pick up his brand new Wrangler Sahara today (Saturday) but despite several conversations, and confirmations with his previous (now former) insurance agent, proof of insurance was not received... therefore the vehicle could not be released... my client was deflated, upset, disappointed and was going to have to take Monday off work to stay to get insurance on Monday because nobody at his broker or insurance agent could do anything on a Saturday. DARREN TO THE RESCUE! He was here within 10 minutes (on his day off when the office was closed), escorted my client to his office, and immediately wrote him an insurance policy AND SAVED HIM MONEY ! My client went from upset to elated! and drove off in his new Wrangler smiling ear to ear. You don't find people with that level of client service very often. We appreciate you Darren!

Preston Renshaw

Darren McCaskie is great to work with. He is professional and courteous and best of all, got us great rates! I'd definitely recommend him for your insurance needs!

Dan Wright

Topnotch!! If you want your business to excel look no further! Darren is a friendly, courteous and knowledgeable asset to McDougalls!

Jennifer Bandy

Our Insurance for our home and vehicles was expiring with another company who we had been with for eight years. We decided maybe it was time to get a different quote for our insurance. We contact Dean Coulter at McDougall Insurance in Bancroft. Dean gathered all our information and was able to give us a quote for our insurance which was 1200.00 cheaper for the year with the same coverage that we previously had for our vehicles with the other insurance company. Dean was professional, quick and efficient in dealing with us. We are very happy that we switched to McDougall Insurance and the service we received from Dean. Wish we would have done it sooner. Todd and Jenn Bandy

Janine Ezard

Darren McCaskie was recommended to me by a friend. He was courteous quick and helped me get the best rate. He saved me approximately $300 compared to another quote. I’m fully insured and he did it the same day I contacted him. Couldn’t be happier. Great service. Thank you Darren and McDougall.

Kara Hartwig
