Insurance companies will get away with anything. I would follow this if you decide to go with a contractor outside the insurance company's list.
I had a house built in the early 80's by a 'reputable' local builder. I'm surprise he is still building! He had the pumber use thin wall pipes in the plumbing to save money. Eventually the pipes corroded and there were pin hole leaks everyehere. Because this happen 15 years after the house was built, I could not go after the builder. The insurance company did pay and I use one of the contractor that was on his list. The contractor detailed the work and work with the adjuster. All work was paid.

If you decide to use an independent contractor, I would suggest Dave Gammon of Laconia, NH. His labor is very reasonable. 603.528.1089
