Does homeowners insurance cover a bad contractor faulty work?
If the contractor owned up to doing anything wrong they would lose there license very fast verses using the courts or state board to take it , what protection does a homeowner have when "we the people" hire some jackleg who is running around with a good con on how great he and his work is. The question I think is does our homeowners policy cover the damage done by a jackleg who did bad work. This is more and more becoming a huge issue in an america that no longer tests class A contractors for there knowledge of how to do the work. Instead they test for business skills and taxes and employees verses testing for what knowledge they have of actually doing something without your home falling down.

Can a homeowner sue a sub contractor for damages?
I am a licensed insurance agent, have been licensed in 45 states for 16 years. I have 5+ years experience insuring general contractors and subcontractors. The answer to your question is "yes". Here is the best way to proceed with such a situation: When you hired the general contractor you should have gotten a certificate of insurance that shows you the name, policy number, effective dates, and policy limits of the general contractor's general liability insurance. It should also show you the name, address and phone number of the insurance agent. Contact the insurance agent or the insurance company to report a claim. It is best to contact the insurance company directly. Go to www.ambest.com to find the insurance company's contact information. If you did not get a certificate of insurance, you can follow your state's insurance regulations which may include mailing a notice to the general contractor advising him that you want to report a claim against his insurance policy. Require him to provide the name of his insurance company. You should also contact the subcontractor and tell him that you want to report a claim against his insurance policy. Require him to provide the name of his insurance company. You can sometimes find the general contractor's insurance company information by contacting the regulators in your state for the construction industry. Some states require general contractors to provide proof of insurance before issuing/renewing licenses. You can also file a complaint against your general contractor with these regulators. I do not recommend filing a claim in small claims court as your first plan of action. First, file an insurance claim against his insurance company and against the subcontractor's insurance company. (It is true that most, if not all, subcontractor's policies don't cover defective work. But their insurance company will respond to adjust the claim which will be helpful to you in pursuing your claim with the general contractor.) Second, file a complaint with the industry regulators in your state. The last thing you want to do is sue the general contractor in small claims court for this kind of thing because you will have the burden of proving the work is defective and this will require expert witnesses. Bad workmanship and/or poor quality construction materials do not necessarily add up to "defective" workmanship. There is a big difference between "bad quality" work and "defective" work. If you take this approach, you will also have to pay to fix the defective work before you can collect anything in court. You have to prove damages in court. You have no measurable damages if you have paid nothing to fix the defect. Once you fix the defect, you can prove to the judge that you had a specific amount of damages arising from the defective work. But don't forgot that you must also prove that the work was "defective" by use of expert witness testimony. Before you sue anyone in court, you need to always do a little research to determine their ability to pay you in the event you win the case. Check the court property records to see if he owns any real estate, for example. Check the bankruptcy court to see if he has filed for bankruptcy or is in the process of bankruptcy. Even if you win in court, you may never get the money owed to you. And don't forget: anybody can file bankruptcy to discharge the judgment. Thank you, Chase Hunter www.ChaseAgency.com
