Contractor problem w mountain house

Hi everyone, 

I'm a newbie . I just got my my first STR property. The property is in Crestline, CA. We are doing some painting and bathrooms remodel. I was told that it is hard to find contractor that works on time and do good works. I was introduced to a contractor , he gave us a good quote but he never follow the time he quoted us. I was fast and good for the first week so he can get my money first. For an inexperienced person, I didn't know they are that off schedule. It has been 3 weeks after the days he was supposed to be done.

He came to work like 1-2 days per weeks.I called him but he kept giving excuses& kept pushing the project.Then he gave me attitude back that it is ok if I don't want work with him anymore. Now that he did half of the job. How am I gonna find someone and clean his mess?  Should I find different contractor? Anyone knows someone in the area?  

Im starting to paying mortgage soon. The clock is clicking. 

Hope to have some advice from you.
