There is no set answer to this, since it depends on many factors, such as: * How much coverage do you have? * What type of coverage do you have? * What is the nature of the claim (fire, flood, etc.) * Was the house insured for full replacement cost, or less? * Did you also have contents insurance, and was there damage to the contents as well? * Did you also have coverage on appurtenant structures (detached buildings such as a tool shed, etc.)? * Are you sure the policy was already in effect at the time of loss? Many policies have a waiting period before they become effective.

Usually not. Most companies do not rate up for a claim.

It is not worth it. Once you file a claim, your insurance premiums will increase for a couple of years.

If it was over $1000, it might be worth it.
