How to deal with a bad GC

[Clarence Ng]

Hey all

I am working with a GC that ignores the timeline and payment terms set forth in the contract and is generally unresponsive. Project is behind by 2-3 months for what was 5 month project. I was told that finding another GC is difficult as they need to assume responsibility for the work that is already done - we added some new foundation, slab, new structural beams on first floor. And that I have to talk to the GC before I can fire him. Anyone been through a similar situation and how did that turn out?
