The insurance company may well ask for receipts afterwards, or they might require independent inspection of the completed works before they renew a policy. Ask them... without giving your own name.

My son damage someones car on the street with his bike can i get my car insurance to pay for it?

I assume that you mean his bicycle and not a motorcycle or motor scooter. If you mean bicycle the answer is no, your auto policy will not cover the damage to the other persons vehicle. Your homeowners insurance may have coverage that would take care of this type of damage. I would recommend that find out what it will take to repair the damage and attempt to pay for it yourself without having to make a claim on your homeowners insurance. You want to try to not make small claims on your insurance if at all possible.

Would Homeowners insurance cover a broken tile?

It depends on if it was damaged by a peril covered by the policy. Even then you need to ask yourself if the damage is so severe that it would exceed your deductible. If a repair job to a tiled area cost $500 and your deductible is $1,400 it would not be worth filing a claim.
