While every Elders Insurance policy differs, most home and commercial policies cover restoration for the following sudden, accidental events:

• Water damage — Burst pipes, leaking appliances, roof leaks from storms, and accidental overflow.
• Fire and smoke damage — Kitchen fires, electrical fires, bushfire ember attack, and associated smoke/soot damage.
• Storm damage — Wind damage, hail damage, fallen trees, and rain water ingress.
• Flood damage — Depending on your policy level and whether flood cover is included.
• Impact damage — Vehicle impact, falling objects, and vandalism (with some policy variations).

Common exclusions across most Elders Insurance policies include gradual damage from lack of maintenance, pre-existing mould, wear and tear, and damage from unapproved renovations. If you are unsure about your coverage, our team can review yourElders Insurance policy at no cost.

Understanding how billing works ensures there are no surprises. Our model is designed to get work started faster and keep you in control of the process:

• We bill you directly — Our contractors invoice you (the property owner / policyholder / management group), not your insurer. This allows work to begin immediately.
• You claim reimbursement from Elders Insurance — We provide all documentation, photos, scope of works, and reports your insurer needs to process your claim.
• Why this is better for you — No waiting for insurer approval before make-safe begins. No scope disputes delaying your restoration. You control the process.
• Payment options available — Flexible payment terms through our finance partner Blue Fire Finance for fast loan approvals.
• Contract provided — After the make-safe is completed, your contractor provides a formal contract with clear terms and conditions.
