Home Insurance Calculators

Buildings and contents insurance calculator

Why should I use a home and contents insurance calculator?

When you take out home and/or contents insurance, it’s important the amount you’re insured for accurately reflects the cost to rebuild your home and/or replace your contents. You might have to pay the difference out of your own pocket if you’re insured for less than the replacement value of your home and contents.

Our Home Insurance calculators are designed to estimate the replacement cost of a residential property, and can also be used as a landlord building insurance calculator.

If you need any help, call one of our insurance specialists on 131 846.

Disclaimer: The calculators will estimate a replacement cost by using the general information about your home buildings and contents provided by you. The estimate may not be appropriate for you and you’ll need to assess its suitability given your knowledge of your property and contents.

It’s your responsibility to ensure that the level of cover will be adequate to repair or replace your buildings and home contents in the event of a covered claim.

If you already have insurance, it’s important that you keep the insured value of your buildings and contents up to date. A gap between the sum insured and the actual value of your buildings and contents can happen slowly over time. Tools such as buildings and contents insurance calculators can help you gauge the current value of your assets.
As you accumulate and upgrade your contents over time, the cost of replacing your new contents may increase. That’s why it’s important for you to regularly review your contents sum insured to make sure it accurately reflects your contents’ value in the event of a claim.

Rebuilding costs can rise over time, increasing the replacement value of your home. This is especially true if you have undertaken any household renovations, including adding on extensions to your home.

When you’re undertaking household renovations, remember to let us know as soon as reasonably possible about renovations worth over $75K if you have Home Insurance or $75K if you have Landlord Insurance with us.
