That depends entirely on your policy and the cause, so speak to your insurance provider first. Keep photos, the plumber's invoice and a note of when the water went off, because claims hinge on that record.

It sits in a small round cover between the sidewalk and the street, and yes, knowing where it is saves time. The shutoff inside the building matters more day to day, though, because the curb valve is meant to be turned by the water department.

Street side of the curb valve is the water department's; house side is the owner's. Locating the break settles which it is, and that's worth doing before any excavation starts.

It depends on the policy and on the cause, so contact your insurance provider before assuming either way. Photograph the damage, keep the plumber's paperwork, and note when the water was shut off, because those are the details a claim turns on.
