It's Maori Language Week

💡I whakawhanake mātou i te Tikanga Inihua Whaitika me te āheinga tōna kaupapa nui. Ka taea te tikiake i te tikanga nei i ngā reo ōkawa katoa o Aotearoa: te reo ā-waha, te reo rotarota me te reo Māori hoki, i tō mātou pae tukutuku. Waihoki, ko te momotuhi e tuhi nei mātou he mea pai mā te tangata tīpaopao kupu 🔎.

💡 We developed the Fair Insurance Code with accessibility at its heart. You can download the code in all of NZ's official languages: audio, sign language and Te Reo on our website, even the font we use is dyslexia friendly 🔎. https://www.icnz.org.nz/fair-insurance-code/about-the-code/

🏠 Planning a renovation? Check your insurance/inihua first.

Many homeowners assume their existing house insurance policy covers them through a renovation, but that's often not the case. Your current policy may not extend to work in progress, or cover may not apply until renovations are complete.

If you're building a new structure, garage, or studio, or making alterations to an existing building, you may need specialist contract works insurance. This covers accidental loss or damage during the building process, including existing structures you're altering, and construction materials and equipment on site.

Before you pick up a hammer: talk to your insurer, check your policy wording, and confirm what's covered so there are no surprises.

New to insurance, or thinking about changing your cover? It doesn’t have to be confusing 🌿

Start with the basics:
- Consider what you are actually protecting: your home, your car, your belongings?
- Kia takatū / be prepared by comparing cover, not just price. A cheaper policy can leave gaps you don’t expect later.
- Think about your excess, what’s included, and whether the cover still fits your life today. Circumstances change, and your insurance should change with them.
