Can I change my sum insured?

Determining the correct sum insured is critical to ensure you're covered in the event of a claim. If your sum insured is too low, you might not be able to rebuild your home or replace its contents. We may even ask you to use one of our calculators to ensure your sum insured is right for you.

If you're unsure or want to check your sum insured, please use one of our calculators.

You're able to change your sum insured any time during the term of your policy. Log into your account and select the policy you want to change, adjust the value and follow the prompts.

We want to help you make sure you’ve got enough insurance to cover everything you want to cover. If you don’t have enough, you may not be able to rebuild your home the way you want, or replace all your items.

Our home and contents calculators are one tool that can help. Just remember that they’re a guide only, and provide a possible sum insured range. The final decision on the sum insured amount is yours, as we’re unable to guarantee that all information in the calculator is up-to-date or accurate. They might also differ from any estimates we provide as part of your quote.
