Yes, accidental damage to fixed glass in windows and doors is covered under AXA’s buildings insurance policies. At AXA, our aim is to protect whatever type of home you have against unexpected accidents like fires, theft, floods, storms, and much more.

What cover is included in buildings insurance?

At AXA, our buildings insurance ensures that your property’s structure is protected if it is damaged as a result of an unexpected event such as a storm, flood or fire.

Our buildings insurance policies include cover for the structure of your house, sheds and outhouses; as well as cover for permanent fixtures like your bathroom or kitchen fittings.

In addition to this, we also cover you for the following:

  • Damage to underground cables and pipes.

  • Accidental damage to fixed glass in windows, doors, skylights, porches or bathroom fittings.

  • Water damage that is a result of water escaping from pipes and kitchen or bathroom appliances.

If your home is damaged and deemed unfit to live in, we will also cover the cost of similar alternative accommodation while your home is being repaired.
