The short answer
Fire from legally purchased consumer fireworks is a covered peril under fire coverage. Illegal fireworks (M-80s, mortars where banned) give insurers grounds to deny under intentional or illegal acts exclusions. Neighbor's fireworks damaging your home — file with your own insurer; they subrogate against the neighbor's liability.
