The best thing to do is to always charge a deposit for your work and then work out a time-table for deliverables and payments. So for example if you estimate it will take 6 weeks to build a site and you both agree to the time frame, ask for 33%-50% down before you start any work. Then 2 weeks later show him the update and ask for another payment. 2 Weeks after that, show updates and ask for payment again, etc.
This way you both get what you expect.
