Does homeowners insurance cover re-drilling water wells that become dry?
No, Homeowners insurance is "Hazard Insurance" for losses to your home from the specified covered perils detailed in your policy. Covered perils are typically losses resulting from Fire, Lightning, Wind and Hail. Home insurance does not cover normal and expected maintenance or repair expenses that are considered incidental to home ownership. It's no different than a clogged drain for example, If it's not the result of a covered peril then it is not covered. Normal Maintenance, Repairs or Home Updates are not hazard losses.

Can you change homeowners insurance companies if you have a claim with the old company for hidden dry rot?
You can change insurance companies at any time you want to. Dry rot is not covered under any homeowners insurance policy and will not be covered by any other company that you change to. When the company finds that you are filing claims for such items and are mad because it wasn't covered the new application may be rejected as well by the new company. Dry rot is a maintenance issue and not the result of a covered cause under home insurance. To be covered by home insurance it must be the result of a covered cause which generally means it must be sudden and accidental.
