Upper Coomera: storms, floods and homes

Upper Coomera was Queensland's number one storm hotspot in Suncorp claims data reported by AAP in late 2024. In March 2024, the member for Theodore told Parliament of a household here with roof damage from the Christmas Day 2023 storms. Water poured into the ceiling whenever it rained, leaving part of the house unliveable. Get in touch, and with your permission a local restoration business can follow up.

If storm damage has left your roof leaking, speak to your insurer before you authorise any building work, even emergency repairs, and get its permission in writing. Record the damage with photos and video as you go. Wet ceilings and carpets need attention, because wet conditions let mould grow, as a Queensland Health fact sheet explains. If you’re renting, let the property manager know straight away.

If you’re calling about a roof leak, tell us when it started and if the ceiling is still dripping. List any wet ceilings, walls, carpets and furniture. Mention if the water has reached power points or lights. Say if you’re the owner or a tenant, and where your insurance claim is up to. Then we can pass everything to a local restoration business near Upper Coomera, once you agree.
