Fire Damage Insurance Claims in Australia

Fire damage claims are typically among the most significant home insurance claims, often involving both structural repair and contents replacement. Even smoke damage without direct flame contact can cause extensive, costly damage.

Types of Fire Damage

• Smoke damage: Can permeate walls, ceilings, fabrics and electronics even without direct fire contact
• Partial structural damage: Damage to specific rooms or sections requiring significant repair
• Severe/total loss: Major structural rebuild required

What to Do After a Fire

• Contact your insurer as soon as possible to begin the claims process
• Don't dispose of damaged items until photographed and assessed
• Keep receipts for any emergency accommodation or temporary repairs
• Engage a licensed restoration company recommended or approved by your insurer
