        "text": "Homeowner's insurance coverage for mold damage varies significantly by policy and the cause of the mold. Most standard policies cover mold if it results from a sudden and accidental peril, such as a burst pipe. However, mold caused by neglect, ongoing leaks, or floods (which typically require separate flood insurance) may not be covered. It's crucial to review your specific policy details or contact your insurance provider directly to understand your coverage limitations and reporting requirements before beginning any repairs.",
