Legal Question in Consumer Law in Florida

My contractor quit after I paid him the agreed upon first draw amount. Now he wants additional monies, including his fee. We had a signed contract. He has placed a lien on my house for what he claims I owe him. He refuses to show me any invoices to justify his claims. What can I do?
