General Contractor disappeared - AIG Construction Houston

[Asim Iftikhar]

Hello,

I am looking for some help from you all.

I executed an agreement with a general contractor (Todd M) who works for a local construction company in Houston - AIG construction. The estimated duration of work was

6 weeks. After the 6th week, the contractor (Todd M) disappeared, and the owner of the company (AIG Construction) told me that it would cost me an additional $12K to finish the work on top of what was agreed upon initially.

Has anyone been through this before?

I do not want to pay extra and want to explore what options i have. Any help/ advise would be greatly appreciated.
