Does Home Insurance Cover Leaks? 
Not sure what type of leak you are referring to , but in regards to things like roof leaks and pipe leaks generally speaking a home insurance policy could pay to fix the damage the leak causes but most wo n't pay to fix the actual leak itself . BE AWARE that this pertains to new or recent leaks . Many carriers have put language in their policy contracts over the last couple of years excluding coverage for for prolonged leaks . Some carriers have even set a time frame as short as 14 days for this exclusion . Every carrier is different and those carriers are even different from state to state . This is something you definitely need to run past your local independent agent . Do n't discuss this in general terms , but ask for the specific language in your actual policy .
