How long should you allow a construction to go past the contracted completion date?

If work is not completed by the date on which it was promised, the contractor is in violation and should not be paid the full agreed amount. If the work is being built for an event on a specific date and is not completed, then the contractor should not be paid anything, as the work was worthless. On an ordinary renovation contract, anything beyond 14 days late should be considered a very serious problem, and the owner would be justified in demanding an explanation and commitment for the earliest possible completion date. If the contractor does not cooperate, cash in the performance bond and hire another contractor to finish the job as soon as possible.
