澳大利亚保险委员会最新报告显示，极端天气导致的房屋修缮费用增长速度远超通胀水平，加剧了该国住房短缺的困境。2022年1月至2026年6月间，保险赔付的灾害相关索赔共计409,094宗，总保险成本达113亿澳元1。这些修缮需求占用了大量建筑资源和人力，直接影响新房供应。2025年极端天气导致145,392户房屋受损，而同年新建房屋数量为172,657户1。
建筑材料成本的上升幅度尤为突出。过去5年间，整体建筑成本上升30%，远高于同期消费价格指数的24%涨幅1。具体而言，屋瓦成本5年内上升77%，而窗户、石膏板、胶合板、铜管、结构钢、水泥和混凝土等关键材料的成本也分别上升37%-48%1。
保险委员会首席执行官Andrew Hall表示："澳大利亚在灾难继续推动现有房屋进入维修队列时无法解决住房短缺"1。自2019年以来，保险委员会已宣布29起极端天气事件，累计损失207亿澳元，涉及760,720多宗房屋和建筑索赔1。2025年11月昆士兰州和新州的风暴冰雹事件造成22亿澳元以上损失和95,692宗索赔1。为应对这一危机，保险委员会呼吁建立101.5亿澳元十年防洪基金，以保护高风险社区1。
Australia's insurance sector has warned that the nation is struggling to address its housing shortage while extreme weather continues to divert construction resources toward repairing damaged homes. Between January 2022 and June 2026, insurers processed 409,094 disaster-related claims totaling AUD 113 billion 1. In 2025 alone, extreme weather damaged 145,392 homes—nearly matching the 172,657 new houses built that same year 1. This repair burden is consuming materials and labor that could otherwise expand the housing supply.
Construction costs have outpaced general inflation, further straining recovery efforts. Over the past five years to March 2026, building costs rose 30 percent, compared to a 24 percent increase in the consumer price index 1. Specific materials have seen sharper spikes: roof tiles cost 77 percent more than five years ago, while windows, drywall, plywood, copper pipes, structural steel, cement, and concrete have all increased between 37 and 48 percent 1. Andrew Hall, chief executive of the Insurance Council of Australia, stated that "Australia cannot solve its housing shortage while disaster continues to push existing homes into the repair queue" 1.
Since 2019, the Insurance Council has declared 29 extreme weather events causing AUD 207 billion in losses and more than 760,720 residential and building claims 1. A November 2025 storm in Queensland and New South Wales alone resulted in over AUD 2.2 billion in damage and 95,692 claims 1. In response, the Insurance Council has called for the establishment of a AUD 10.15 billion decade-long flood resilience fund to protect high-risk communities 1.
