Types of Roof Damage Covered by Insurance

Understanding what roof damage is covered by insurance is key for Brisbane homeowners. Our team at Five Star Roofing handles insurance roof repair daily, so we know how local insurers respond.

Storm, Hail & Wind Damage

Brisbane’s home and building insurance policies cover sudden weather events, including hailstorms, strong winds, and flying debris.

These often cause cracked tiles, dented metal sheets, or punctures, leading to internal water leaks. Five Star Roofing responds quickly with make-safe solutions and then provides a full repair plan for your insurer.

Fire and Lightning Damage

Standard insurance policies cover roof fires and lightning strikes, assuming routine maintenance is in place.

We inspect all structural and surface damage, supply detailed reports, and restore your roof to safety.

Falling Objects and Debris

Storms can bring down tree limbs or other objects that damage your roof. If the damage is accidental and not caused by neglect, it is usually covered.

We liaise with your insurer and deliver reports and repairs to specification.

Theft and Vandalism

Most insurers cover roof damage caused by a break-in or vandalism, mainly if supported by a police report.

After such incidents, we document and restore roofing, including flashing damage or structural tampering.

Accurate Documentation Matters

The claim process relies heavily on accurate evidence. Immediately after the event, take clear photos of affected roof tiles, metal sheeting, and any internal leaks.

Collect written notes about the type and likely cause of damage.

We help clients by providing an organized inspection report with mapped-out photos and exact details, ready for insurance review.

Understand Your Policy

Insurers in Brisbane typically cover events like storms or accidental impact, but not neglect or wear and tear.

Read your policy before lodging a claim. Most issues we see stem from misunderstandings of what’s covered.

Five Star Roofing regularly assists with clear, written assessments, highlighting what aligns with standard insurance requirements.

Only Do Emergency Fixes First

Insurers want to see that you’ve prevented further damage.

Tarping or patching leaks is fine, but hold off on complete repairs until an adjuster has inspected.

We can deliver emergency make-safe works, document every step, and provide receipts so you can comply with your insurer’s expectations.

Choose a Licensed Roofing Contractor

Having a detailed report from a QBCC-licensed team matters. Insurers rely on these assessments to confirm the real extent of storm or hail damage.

Our licensed inspectors attend on-site, communicate directly with loss adjusters, and back you with full compliance to Brisbane standards, supporting your negotiations and helping prevent disputes.

For genuine results from your insurance roof repair claim, our local experience, documentation, and commitment create a smoother process. If you want clarity at any stage, reach out and we’ll walk you through your best next step.

Frequently Asked Questions

For most Brisbane homes, insurance roof repairs (for storm, hail, or tree damage) generally cost between $1,500 and $8,000, with your main expense being the insurance excess, which usually falls anywhere from $500 to $1,000.

This is significantly less than handling roof repairs without insurance, which can run from $3,000 to over $20,000 for substantial tile or metal roof damage, depending on the scope and materials.

Five Star Roofing works closely with insurers and homeowners to ensure repairs are completed to a high standard and claims are processed efficiently. If you need help understanding your options or want a tailored quote, contact us directly, and we’ll walk you through the following steps.

If your Brisbane roof has widespread wear, fading, surface damage, or recurring leaks, not just a single cracked tile or a patch of storm damage, you’ll typically need a restoration rather than a simple repair.

Restoration goes beyond spot-fixing by cleaning, re-coating, sealing, and addressing issues across the whole roof, which is ideal for older properties showing visible age or where minor fixes no longer last.

At Five Star Roofing, we often recommend restorations for structurally sound roofs that have endured years of Brisbane’s harsh sun, rain, or moss growth. If you’re unsure what’s best for your home, contact us for a free assessment.

For most standard insurance roof repairs in Brisbane, council approval is not required as long as you simply restore your existing tile or metal roof to its previous condition following insured damage.

Council involvement is typically only needed if the repairs involve significant structural changes, an extension, or a total roof replacement that alters the building’s height or footprint.

At Five Star Roofing, we always conduct repairs in accordance with local regulations and will advise you immediately if anything in your claim might trigger the need for council approval. Contact us today for a free, no-obligation roof inspection or clarification about council requirements for your home.

The typical timeline for insurance roof repairs in Brisbane ranges from one to three weeks, depending on the scale of the damage and how quickly your insurance claim is approved.

Repairs can sometimes be scheduled and finished within several days of claim authorisation for minor storm or hail issues. More extensive or complex jobs may take longer due to material supply and scheduling with local trades, particularly after widespread weather events.

At Five Star Roofing, we prioritise swift inspections, clear documentation, and direct communication with your insurer to speed the process and minimise disruption to your home. If you need fast turnaround or have unique time constraints, let us know during your initial enquiry so we can tailor our approach to suit your needs.
