How to file an insurance claim on a general contractor for work performances noncompliant with FBC

FloridaPrompt PaymentRecovery Options

I have purchased a home that was newly renovated by a licensed general contractor and his team of subcontractors in the state of Florida , in the city of Boca Raton however The plans filed with the city do not match the work performances nor does any of the work meet with FBC Compliance’s. All disciplines have been affected whereby each discipline is non-functioning. Immediately we had brought this matter in its entirety to the city of Boca Ratons attention and after countless meetings and discussions to force this Florida licensed general contractor and his team to rectify all the major work remediation work necessary to meet with Florida building and fire and safety codes and to meet with the approved permitted plans, we remain in the same position with open costly non-functioning disciplines and no closer to a resolve. Now we are simply seeking financial restitution by filing an Insurance Claim against the General contractors liability insurance to fund the remediation work independent of this general contractor to achieve a functioning home that in fact meets with FBC and the plans it’s suppose to have meet originally.

You can request the contractor’s insurance information by sending a demand pursuant to Section 627.4137, Florida Statutes. Then you can use that info to make the claim. If the contractor won’t provide the info, you will likely need to get an attorney.
