Is there a question here?  This situation is unfortunate.  Your contractor maybe should have known what it would take to get the job passed by the inspectors but mistakes do happen.  Had he known up front, do you think he would have charged more money?  Probably would.  If that's true, then its fair for you to pay add'l to get the job done that you are seeking.  You might try and work something out with the contractor b/c finding a new one to take over will be very tough plus it will be expensive to sue the prior contractor for the add'l money.
