I would like any information regarding submitting receipts for repairs that need to be done to my home. I have a large deductable and the repair expenses go beyond the claim payment. Can I hire a handy man or do the work myself? What documentation do I need to provide my insurance company as proof that the work is completed.

You can - but the insurance company can cancel you if the guy doing the repairs is required to be licensed, and isn't (example, a plumber). Also, depending on the type of claim, you might need to get a permit to do the repairs - which could ALSO require a license.
Anyway, to prove the repairs were done, you'll need photos and the receipts for the supplies. Also, if you do work yourself, log the hours you put into it.
Keep in mind, if you do a rotten job the first time, the insurance company won't pay a second time - and won't cover any mistakes you make with the repairs.

What kind of damage ?
Plumbing or Electrical ?
Or carpet and paint ?
You left out the important info , which suggests you are totally unfamiliar with code requirements (and the life or death issues they come from ) .
If it is carpet & paint , you can do it yourself .
A substandard job will not be hazardous at least .
Other work , framing , plumbing , electrical etc . . .
You need to get a qualified journeyman .

The insurance company should send out a claims adjuster. He will make an estimate. If you agree to accept the estimate, they send you a check. After that, they don't care who does the work, or even if you have it fixed at all.

you're able to desire to furnish them evidence of the paintings being accomplished and maximum agencies could desire to have receipts from the contractors doing the paintings exhibiting the quantity paid and the paintings that grow to be accomplished. in case you do any paintings your self, you provides receipts of fabric you obtain to do the maintenance and pictures of the maintenance accomplished, yet you is basically not paid on your exertions.
