I want to kill our programmer, calm me down

We hired this programmer about 4 months ago for a job that was about 7k total. Database/admin/api. It was set so that 3 things would get done about 2 weeks apart, so for a total of 6 weeks.

At this point, nothing is done yet that we can use, and we get a vague, ?it will get done tonight? but that has been happening for weeks. He seems to have a lot done and my guess is that its 80% there, as Ive looked at the code and it looks like it makes sense. The thing is we need it done now and every day its just a little longer. Im ready to cut this guy off and use somebody else, but we already paid him 4k and he is sort of holding us hostage. Hes a nice guy and always answers his phone, its just I don?t think hes made any deadlines and its driving me crazy

i have not gone through this much stress in some time. should we pull the code from him and give it to somebody else to finish?
