Will landlord policy cover floor damage from burst pipe under hse

A pipe under the duplex burst and filled crawlspace with water.  Pumped it out with pump.  Now floors have started buckling because of excessive moisture when site was wet.  Will insurance policy consider this a covered expense?

I'm not sure about the insurance issue, but I would immediately rent dehumidifiers to put in the first floor and crawlspace. Pull that moisture out and you may be surprised how quickly the floors settle back down to their original state. 

Good luck!
