If you have homeowners insurance, call the claims number on your policy. Explain the situation, have your policy number in hand, and if you have any receipts of damage or proof of damage keep it.

It will be on file with the Ins Co as a cancelled claim. If the adjuster did not put the claim in the PILR database only the Ins Co will know about it. If they did it will pop up as a reported claim for all to see. PILR = Property Insurance Loss Register

Does homeowners insurance cover water damage from a sink that overflowed accidentally?

This is usually covered by most policies. However I encourage you to think about the pros and cons of filing a claim. For instance if the water did $750 of damage to the kitchen floor, and your policy has a $500 deductible then you may not want to file a $250 claim. If you have filed another water claim in the last 5 years, then you may not want to file another one (unless it's something that you really cannot afford to pay yourself). The reason for this is that insurance companies look cautiously on homeowners with a history of water, theft, and liability claims. If you'd like more information on why those particular claims can be an issue, try googling "water, theft, liability claim problems".
