SSKB Strata Series: Insurance Vs Maintenance Webinar

Maintenance vs Insurance

Understand the Difference. Protect Your Building. Avoid Costly Mistakes.

When something goes wrong in a strata building, one question always comes first:

Is it a maintenance issue—or an insurance claim?

It’s a simple question, but the answer can have major financial and operational consequences for your body corporate. Misunderstanding the difference can lead to claim rejections, unexpected costs, and ongoing building risks.

Hosted by SSKB, and joined by CIB, this event is your practical guide to understanding how maintenance and insurance work together—and what your committee needs to do to stay protected.
