Peace of mind for every type of homeowner.


What Building Insurance covers

We know that your home is much more than just bricks and mortar – but it’s still worth ensuring the physical structure is covered.


With our Building Insurance, we’ll make sure you’re covered should something happen because of events like:

  • Theft, fire, lightning, storms and earthquakes.
  • Water damage from leaking or overflowing geysers, tanks, pipes and gutters.
  • Malicious or accidental damage.


Your Building Insurance also includes:

  • The cost of employing a security guard to protect the building.
  • Replacing lost keys and remote control units, or damage to your locks.
  • The loss of metered water.
  • Leak detection and repairs.
  • Accidental damage to underground public services.
  • Cover for costs charged by an authorised body for extinguishing a fire, to prevent or reduce loss or damage to the building.
  • Cover for any rental income you lose if your building is uninhabitable after a claim event or the cost of having to find alternative accommodation.
