No. Homeowners insurance does not provide coverage for routine expected Plumbing maintenance issues. However, If you have "Accidental Water Discharge" coverage on your policy, then you will be covered for resulting damages from the overflow but not for the actual plumbing repairs needed. If you have damages that resulted from the overflow, once you have made the required plumbing repairs the company will invoke the damage coverage. If you do not make the necessary plumbing repair then the insurance company will not fix the other damages that resulted from it. The reasoning is that if the homeowner refuses to maintain the home, then this is a moral hazard (negligence) on the part of the homeowner and the damages that result from lack of maintenance will be ongoing.
