They have every right to control the funds in this situation. They don't want to let you have the money, and be able to walk away and hand them the keys to a damaged house! This is the way the process normally works with an insurance company. You let them know about the contractor who will do the repairs, and the insurance company will pay them directly after work is done, and probably a deposit up front as well.
