Most standard homeowner's insurance policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as burst pipes or appliance malfunctions. However, coverage may vary, and gradual or long-term issues, like water seepage or poor maintenance, may not be covered. Review your policy and contact your insurance provider to understand your coverage and file a claim if necessary.
