We've tried to make the claims process as simple as possible.
You can call us anytime on 0800 80 24 24 or submit your claim online:

To make a claim on your State Home insurance, you’ll need to provide us with information on your home such as:
- what damage has occurred,
- what caused the damage, and
- any steps you may have taken to prevent further damage.
If you suspect the loss or damage was the result of burglary, theft or a malicious act, call the Police immediately. They will give you a form that confirms your loss. Please keep hold of this form.
The excess you will have to pay
The standard excess is $250. You may have selected a higher voluntary excess in order to receive a premium discount, or have an imposed excess. Please read your policy schedule if you are unsure of your excess or call us on 0800 80 24 24.
