Homeowners Insurance is a "Hazard Insurance Policy" which covers "Sudden Losses" due to the specified perils listed on the policy. Covered Perils are typically Fire, Wind, Hail, Falling Objects etc.

Tree roots are typically not a covered peril because this is a property maintenance issue under the complete control of the homeowner. Failure to properly maintain ones home and property can indicate a "Moral Hazard" on the part of the property owner and can result in cancellation of the policy.

Most people keep trees and large rooting shrubs cut back away from the homes foundation so as to avoid this type of damage.
