In civil construction projects advance is given to the contractor which is known is as Mobilization Advance. It is normally 15% of the total contract value. The prerequisite for the issue of advance is that contractor has to provide a guarantee in the shape of Bank or Insurance equal to the amount being issued to the contractor. Mobilization advance is deducted from the bills of contractor in equal installments covering the project period. On completion of recovery Guarantee provided by the contractor is released.

No!! It is highly illegal for you to do this. When you make a claim on you home insurance for something that was the fault of your contractor you sign over all subjugation rights against this contractor to your insurance company. This means that if your home insurance pays any part of this claim you give them all your rights to go after the contractor, which they will do. They will go to the contractor and their insurance company to get reimbursed for any amount they paid plus costs. In most states it is considered insurance fraud for you to even try to collect damages from two places for the same claim.
Your contract with the tradesman is between "You and the Contractor", He did not contract with your insurance company. All the insurance company did is agree to pay the bill for you. So you would need to bring your own civil or criminal action against your contractor depending on the circumstances.
If your contractor refuses to give you copies or originals of the insurance papers, contact the insurance company themselves. If the insurance company name is not known, call the state you live in to inquire.
