water/sewer bill covered by home insurance claim?

[Neel Shah]

Hello everyone,

I recently had water damage due to a pipe burst in my rental house.  I submitted an insurance claim and it was fully covered by the insurance. 

About 2 months later, I received my water/sewer bill.  It turns out many cu. ft. of water was wasted when the pipe burst and the bill is over $3500 just for one quarter.   Will this water/sewer bill be covered by the insurance??

I had not accounted for this big of water bill charge - looking for way to minimize/cover this.

Any help/insight will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
