What is recourse for homeowner whose insurance company paid contractor in full and contractor refuses to complete the job as agreed to with the insurance company?
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.

What's a surety bond?
a form of 'insurance' acquired by a contractor (usually required by an owner or entity engaging the services of a contractor) whereby, if the contractor defaults (i.e. is unable, for whatever reason, to complete the work that it contracted for) the surety will take over the completion of the project, sometimes using the contractor's own forces or, more commonly, engaging the services of another contractor to complete the work. = Answer == Bonding is frequently called ""reverse insurance". Insurance is intended to pay someone for damages by an event that, may or may not have any fault, but is essentially expected to possibly happen, (like a house fire). An insurance company expects to pay some losses - the risk of that loss, to the degree that it is more than the fee/premium charged, is shifted from the insured to the insurance company. Bonding on the other hand, is a way to assure payment (or performance of something) for an event that really should never happen. If payment/performance under a bond must occur, the Bonding Company will try and get paid by the one it bonded. It never agreed there should be or to accept any loss. Hence, along with a fee the company normally gets security/liens/mortgage that it feels is adequate to reimburse it for any amounts it pays. Bonds come in many, frequently specific & independent forms. For example, it is common that a building contractor will have to provide 3 different bonds in many jobs: Bidding, Performance, & Payment. The bid bond assures that if he bids to do a job - wins the bid - and then doesn't agree to to the job as bid, the one who was requesting the bid (and now has to go through the time and expense of redoing it all) gets compensated. The contractor may also have to provide a Performance bond, which basically means if he fails to complete the contract, (walks off the job, etc., ) and the buyer needs to get someone else to do it, there is compensation in the bond amount. This bond may even cover the warrenty period, so there is a way to assure the contractors 10 year guarantee, if say, he's gone then. (Sometimes, instead of paying, the Bonding Company will/must actually step in and hire another contractor to perform). There may be a bond required to assure that payments made to the general Contractor that should be paid to the sub contractors , suppliers or employees, are actually paid to those people. (If the contractor fails to pay a supplier/worker, those people actually have a lien against your property until they are paid, even if you paid the contractor). Hence, a bond is essentially that a large, capable organization (generally an insurance company), agrees that those taking on a responsibility are actually responsible, or the bonding Company will perform in its behalf or compensate....and then get renumeration from the one causing the problem. In most job situations, it means you are considered responsible to be trusted with money, (under what would be expected to be controlled guidelines of your employer). Just being able to be bonded for something, indicating another presumably large/reputable company will stand behind you, is a sign of quality and integrity.A surety bond is a promise to pay one party (the obligee) a certain amount if a second party (the principal) fails to meet some obligation, such as fulfilling the terms of a contract. The surety bond protects the obligee against losses resulting from the principal's failure to meet the obligation.

How does Monopolistic Competition differ from Oligopolistic Competition?
"Monopolistic Competition" is, unless I'm missing something, an oxymoron. "Monopoly" implies "no competitors," so who, precisely, is the monopoly supposed to be competing with? In an oligopoly, there are a few competitors, so there actually could be some competition; however, the term is generally used in a trust situation where the "competitors" more or less agree not to actually compete.

Should you get a home improvement loan from a contractor?
Watch out for this situation: A contractor offers to do some work on your home, saying he can also arrange the financing through a lender. Once you agree, the contractor begins work. The lender then appears with papers to sign. He may rush you into signing a document before you have time to read it, or the contractor may threaten to stop working until the papers are signed. You sign, only later realizing you've just agreed to a home equity loan with high rates, points and fees. Additionally, the contractor now has no interest in finishing the job, since he has already gotten paid by the lender.

How do you recognize agree and respect the roles and responsibilities of colleagues?
When you are looking to hire a contractor (or sales rep of any sort) you can get a better idea of that persons competencies by doing the following: - Get references, and call those references to find out about the contractor past work. If there was a problem they will tell you. - ask to see a profolio of past jobs, that way you can see how those jobs turned out. - Never assume things. If there are things you want done when you hire the contractor, make sure you get those things written down and signed by contractor. Write down EVERY THING you want him/her to do. That way when they say they are done, you know they are done and you feel happier about your contractors work. If they don't do all the tasks that you had written down then you can always take them to court. I hope that this helps
