Contractor won't call for inspections
My contractor has gone above and beyond on overages, both time and cost. Now he's demanding I pay his subs that I already paid him for, or he won't call for final inspections. I've had enough of him. Is there any way I can do the final inspections myself, or hire another contractor? What's the best way to proceed?

We don't know why there are overages. Is it because the scope was not complete, and additional work beyond the original contract had to be performed, or was the work was just more difficult that the contractor anticipated? I'm guessing the former.
