I hired this general contractor to build a one family home on an empty lot in Brooklyn It has been years since the job started and it is still not complete My last payment of 35,was in or about June of No work was done since that time The contractor insisted he needed the last 35,to payment to pay his sub contractors There is about 11,left on contract I attempted to finish house using other contractors and stay within the 11, I have already expended about 6,to finish house Last week, I found out the contractor still owed 15,to subs The non payment has prevented me from getting my certificate of occupancy as sub wont sign release til he is paid
By the time I finish the house on my own, the costs will exceed the 11, I asked the contractor to pay his subs and I would finish house on my own He refused
