Generally no. Hired workers are not covered under a home insurance policy.

Homeowners insurance policies do not cover "poor workmanship" But the contractor or repairman's Commercial Liability policy will cover if he damages your property or fails to perform repairs up to the standards that a reasonable person would expect.

This is why you should always hire from established companies that you can verify are properly licensed and insured to perform the work.
