Insured damage from the hailstorm that hit Queensland’s Gold Coast last week could reach $50 million. 

Insurance Disaster Response Organisation Queensland Co-ordinator Graham Jones says insurers are continuing to receive claims. “Insurers have dispatched additional resources to the area to assess the damage and to expedite policyholders claims and recovery from the storms,” he said.

Damage from the hailstorm was predominantly to roofs of buildings and to cars.
