What features might WA residents want in their Home Insurance?
Western Australians live with some of the country’s most varied and intense weather conditions. From bushfire‑prone areas in the south‑west and outer Perth suburbs to cyclone‑exposed communities in the north, having home insurance can make a real difference when big events hit. Head to our Extreme Weather Support guide for extra help.
Bushfires
WA faces some of Australia’s most severe bushfire seasons, especially across the south‑west and peri‑urban areas. We cover fire damage and provide temporary accommodation4 if you can no longer live in your home after a bushfire.3
Theft or burglary
We cover the cost of stolen items and repairs if your home or shed is broken into.
Cyclones and severe storms
Northern WA experiences regular cyclones, while thunderstorms and damaging winds are common across the state. We cover you for storm, cyclone3 and rainwater damage.
Floods
Although WA is known for its dry climate, major flood events still occur, particularly in the Kimberley, Pilbara and Wheatbelt. We automatically cover flood and run‑off.3
Falling trees and debris
Strong winds and storms frequently bring down trees and branches, especially in heavily treed suburbs. If a tree falls and causes damage to your fence, roof or other structures, the 'impact damage' benefit can provide cover.
This is a summary only of some of the features available in our Home Insurance policies. Before deciding on this insurance, carefully consider the PDS which sets out the terms, conditions, limits and exclusions.

Other ways we can help
We can help make your home more resilient
If your home is damaged by a flood, bushfire or cyclone and we’ve agreed to rebuild, we can help you come back more resilient and safer.
Our environmental and resilience benefit is available with Home and Landlord Insurance when you have buildings cover. It helps pay for upgrades like solar panels, rainwater tanks, cyclone shutters, roof sprinklers or fire-resistant materials. We’ll cover up to $20,000, on top of your sum insured, once costs are approved and rebates are deducted.5
Add our rebuild safety net cover
The rebuild safety net is an optional benefit you can add to your Allianz Home Insurance or Allianz Landlord Insurance policy. It can be added when you get a quote. Eligibility criteria applies.
If we accept your claim for loss or damage and the cost is more than your building’s insured amount, we can pay you up to 30% extra. For example, if your buildings sum insured is $500,000, we’ll cover up to $150,000 in addition to your buildings sum insured to cover these unexpected costs.
