It depends on the policy, the cause and how the damage happened, so the honest answer is that only your insurer can tell you. Sudden failures and slow long-running leaks are often treated very differently. Contact your insurance provider before assuming either way, and keep the plumber's paperwork and any photos.

No. The meter measures, and the valves on either side of it do the stopping. Many homes here have a valve just before the meter and another just after, and the one after is the one you want for work inside. Knowing which is which before an emergency is half the battle.

Then the valve and the pipe are one problem, not two, because working a valve on brittle service pipe can start a leak in the pipe itself. Pennsylvania has plenty of housing old enough for that to be a live question. A plumber will look at the pipe material first and plan the repair around it.

It sits in a small metal or plastic box near the property line, often between the sidewalk and the street, and it takes a long key to reach. It's the water utility's valve, so turning it yourself is not something to do on your own initiative. A plumber can work with the provider when the line needs isolating at the street.
