Why do folks continue to give contractors money before any work is completed? If they want a milestone payment, fine, but clearly define what work is done before a payment is made. Many ask for money up front to pay for materials. And I will write that check when the material is delivered. If their credit is so bad they can't purchase material before being paid some part of the total, I guess I would find a different contractor.
