Storm (including hail)
COVERED
Australia is famous for its sunshine and idyllic climate. But, perhaps of equal infamy is our chaotic weather. This is why it may bring peace of mind knowing you're covered for certain storm events when you take out a Suncorp policy.
What policy covers loss or damage caused by storms (including hail)?
Cover for damage caused by storms applies to all of our levels of cover. We classify a storm as a storm, cyclone or severe atmospheric disturbance. It can be accompanied by strong winds, rain, lightning, hail, snow or dust.
What’s covered
Loss or damage caused by a storm.
We do not provide cover for storms in the first 72 hours of a new policy. Very limited exceptions apply.
What’s not covered
There are instances where you are not covered, such as where actions or movements of the sea caused the damage. There are also specific structures that we don't cover, like retaining walls, garden borders, free-standing outdoor walls, or a sporting surface or court like a tennis court.
You can find more information on this and other instances you will not be covered in the Product Disclosure Statement.
