I have just renewed my Home and Contents Insurance with Avoca again and I want everyone to know how wonderful they are. (Thank you Julie) My journey with Avoca started in 2017 after I purchased my current house and they were recommended to me by a friend. After a brief discussion with Sheenali by phone with details then confirmed by email I was quickly set up with appropriate and competitively priced cover for my insurance situation in preparation for the settlement of my house. Yearly renewals are a breeze. I am contacted at least 6 weeks before my insurance renewal is due to confirm if there are any changes or additions. It is always an easy stress free exercise for me. If you do have the mis fortune to have an event I can speak from personal experience that Avoca have you back. I retuned home from work at about 9pm on Christmas eve 2021 to find a collapsed ceiling in my living room and a flooded house due to a burst Iplex hot water pipe in my roof (pictures included below). I sent out an email to Avoca later the same evening. I received a call from Avoca just before 9:30am Christmas Morning (Thank you again Mia) and before lunch Christmas day I had an emergency visit from a plumber and electrician to make my house safe. Further, when things don't go to plan Avoca are there to help you. Following the aforementioned flood, the builder assigned to rectify the damage (AT Build WA PTY Ltd) was made aware if a large crack in the Gyprock that had formed above my built in bookcase they had replaced as part of the rectification works. AT Build WA acknowledged the defect in their work but then simply would not make a time to be available to return and correct the defect. After "getting the run around" for four months I contacted Avoca for assistance. Avoca were able to contact my insurer, who in turn, reopened my original claim and directed the builder to make themselves available to correct the defect without unnecessary delay. It took less then 1 month following this intervention to have matter resoled (thank you again Melissa and Sara). I hope this shows everyone how the level of customer service and attention to detail you receive being a client of Avoca, I would recommend them to anyone. My wife also uses Avoca for insuring her two rental properties. Included are two pictures of damage from the flood December 24 2021.

Maryna and Avoca has been truly fantastic. I was knocked back for Worker Compensation insurance because we were a small business and Avoca managed to find a really great, affordable solution... More than that made us feel like a VIP customer. Thank you team ☺️

After just six months, Avoca has wowed me and my team with their professionalism. Not only were they able to secure our apartment complex a great insurance deal, their prompt response to queries, knowledge, willingness to educate and warm approach in all communication continue to be stand outs in the industry.

We have been with Avoca Insurance for many years now in both business and personal from cars, workers comp, boats, contents and more. The service has always been fast and precise and annually reviewed. Our key contact has been Mia who has been exceptional, and we were also able to work with Sheenali on a recent event who went above and beyond in every way and made the entire event seamless for all stakeholders.

It was absolutely fantastic working with the Avoca team for their 20th Anniversary celebration! From the very beginning, communication was smooth and thoughtful, and the entire event was beautifully organised with so much care and attention to detail. I’m so grateful to have been part of such a special milestone—what an incredible atmosphere! It was a real pleasure collaborating with such kind and professional people. Thank you again for trusting me to be part of the celebration. I would be more than happy to work together again in the future! Warmest regards, Yen @deluxe_party_time

Sheenali at AVOCA has been a fantastic client to work with. She brought us on board to photograph their 20th anniversary event, a beautifully planned celebration that highlighted just how much their team values connection and community. It was a pleasure capturing such a milestone moment for them. - Kevin, Rolo Media
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, pet insurance providers in Australia are regulated. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) oversees licensing and financial stability, while the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) focuses on consumer protection and disclosure obligations, such as requiring a clear Product Disclosure Statement (PDS).

In most cases, pre-existing conditions and symptoms aren’t covered under pet insurance. However, in some situations, an insurer may make an exception after a formal assessment. If you’re unsure whether your pet has any pre-existing conditions, we can arrange a pre-existing condition assessment before you lodge your first claim. Our goal is to keep things transparent and help you understand exactly what is and isn’t covered.

Vet bills can add up quickly, especially when unexpected accidents or illnesses occur. Pet insurance helps you manage these costs, so you never have to choose between your finances and your pet’s health. With Knose Pet Insurance, you can access flexible cover options designed to suit your pet’s unique needs, giving you peace of mind that they’ll always receive the best care when life throws a curveball.

A deductible (also known as an excess) is the amount you agree to pay towards a claim before your insurance kicks in. For example, if your deductible is $100 and your vet bill is $1,000, you’ll pay the first $100 and the insurer will cover the rest.

Pet insurance premiums aren’t one-size-fits-all. Insurers consider factors like your pet’s species, breed, age, and where you live. They also take into account veterinary cost trends and overall claims history. As your pet gets older or as vet expenses rise, your premium may change. At Knose, we’re upfront about these factors so you can make informed decisions when choosing cover.
