I think it has to go either against accounts payable or accounts receivable
depending whether you get payment before or after you paid for damage
Like this:
2020-01-18 * "Fixing house water damage from personal money"
Assets:Checking -1000.00 USD
Assets:AccontsReceivable:Insurance 1000.00 USD ; We know we will
get this money back from insurance company
2020-02-19 * "Getting payment from insurance companyone month later"
Assets:Checking 1000.00 USD
Assets:AccontsReceivable:Insurance -1000.00 USD
