Your home insurance policy is designed to insure against sudden and accidental losses. In many cases, mold is a result of not properly mitigating your damages. Although your home policy may provide minimal mold coverage, usually up to $20k most mold claims are denied.
If the mold occurs immediately after the loss then there is a good chance you will have coverage, if the mold happens much later then it is most likely the result of a water leak that was not handled. After a water loss it is best to make sure the area is dry and properly ventilated before making any repairs. This will help to prevent any future mold issues.
