It depends on the work you're doing.
You're covered for:
- insured events when your renovations are only internal cosmetic changes (like painting or replacing your carpet)
- up to $1,000 for building materials (like bricks and tiles) and items that will be fitted (like a dishwasher or oven).
You're not covered for:
- damage to building or contents as a direct result of building works
- storm or water damage through an opening made for renovations.
- liability for building works above $50,000.
You may want to update the amount your home is insured for, to make sure it's enough to cover your renovations.
