Key features

One of the most attractive aspects of Apia’s Home & Contents Extra Insurance alongside its standard coverage level is the wide range of events you’re covered for. If your home or its contents are damaged due to natural events such as a fire, storm, flood, earthquake or lightning strike, Apia have you covered. This policy will cover you in the event of a tree falling on your home or if a leaky pipe causes some serious damage. 

However, there are exclusions surrounding a storm and power surges - so make sure to read the PDS before taking out the policy. And remember, there's different base levels of cover for Apia’s Home & Contents Extra Insurance and their standard Home & Contents Insurance. 

Gates and fences on your property will be covered with the Home & Contents Extra Insurance option. And if you’ve recently splashed some cash to make your yard look a little nicer, Apia will cover your fancy backyard digs for up to $3,000, and will also cover building materials so long as they're securely stored on the property.

In terms of contents insured, Apia cover things like work-related equipment, credit cards and home office inventory as standard with this policy. You can rest easy knowing that if one of the aforementioned events renders your home uninhabitable and you have either level of cover, Apia will cover the costs of temporary accommodation for both you and your pets for up to 12 months (or 10% of the sum insured). 

By combining both your home and contents insurance, Apia will reward you with a neat combined policy discount, plus the 10% discount for getting a quote online. If you have other insurance policies with Apia for your car or travel needs, then you could be up for a multi-policy discount which makes insuring your home and belongings with Apia pretty affordable.

Apia's Work Less Pay Less discount is also great for anyone with reduced hours. If you work less than 37 hours a week, Apia will reward you with yet another discount, since you'll be at home more often and can quickly address any problems which might arise at your property.

Any catches

Apia’s policies don’t come with any underinsurance protection. Once you’ve got your policy sorted, it's important to regularly update it when you purchase any new items for your home or when you renovate any fixtures and fittings. That way you’ll have the right level of cover if you need to make a claim.
