He may have been really busy. Small contactors that do all of the work themselves usually have to stop work to go to other places to do bids, etc. I've contracted 2 different things out and though it took a little longer to get them finished (because they had to go someplace else), they always finished the work.

Talk to him and let him know that you're giving him till such-and-such date to finish the job and do NOT finish paying him until he finishes the job.
