Insurers struggle to keep up with meth claims

The first Vaughan Cooper knew about a methamphetamine contamination problem in his rental property was when he found out the police had raided the house.

He had previously lived in it himself but moved out and placed it with a property manager to rent.

After the raid, tests showed contamination from methamphetamine throughout the house. They indicated that while the drug had probably not been made there, the people staying in the house were heavy users.

The clean-up job was extensive รข€“ the interiors had to be resurfaced, right down to the light switches. It was also expensive, through repairs and lost rent, although Cooper's insurer, NZI, footed the bulk of the bill.
