Contractor going over time he estimated

Hi-

I hired a contractor to do some work in my house. We are paying him by the day and he estimated everything would take about 10 days. I understand that sometimes things don't go as planned but I feel like he is so off schedule. I feel like none of the things are fully complete.

I want to have a talk with him to see how much longer.

Any thoughts on how to approach him?

Re: Contractor going over time he estimated

i would be completely upfront and ask how long to complete the job.

Are you there to supervise the work and see if he is actually working?

I know now my Bl is running behind schedule but i am there to see he is working and it's just taking a long time to do certain things due to unexpected issues. This is only two-three days off not a week. I would have issues if it was a week.
