Signs made of glass or plastic which forms part of an illuminated sign
Costs for after-hours service, express delivery and overtime by repairers
Malicious damage where there has been no breakage

What’s typically NOT covered?

Repair or replacement for glass:

Which is stock
Which is in poor condition (eg. chipped) when the period of cover commences
Which is part of a greenhouse, computer screen, vase, television screen, radio, conservatory, or glass item normally covered by hand

Things to consider

Does your lease or rental agreement require this cover? This is a common requirement in leases.
Are you in an area that is prone to malicious damage to shopfronts, such as an entertainment or nightclub district?
