You would stop work due to the home owner's material breach of your contract, and sue the home owner for damages sustained from their breach of contract.  In many jurisdictions (I don't know about AZ specifically) you would also, even before going to court, be able to file a mechanic's or materialman's lien against the home for the amount owed.
