Sewer line repair is usually not covered by homeowners insurance policies and most times you'll have to pay out of pocket to have a sewer line repaired.

Homeowners Insurance may cover the cost of any damages in your home due to a sewage backup due to a broken or clogged sewer line.

But sewer repairs that just need repaired overtime fall under the homeowners responsibility where you'll have to pay out of pocket.
