Hey Andrew. I'm a builder/contractor and I, for one, would appreciate the phone call to the office like you made. If it's a large corporate builder (Ryan, Pulte, etc.) calling the office may fall on deaf ears. I like the suggestion of speaking to the site superintendent as he should better be able to control the situation. Maybe the office would be willing to give you his cell.

If the second call to the builder doesn't take care of the problem, then I agree, the building inspector would be the person to call. It might not be a formal complaint coming from him/her, but that's who the builder has to deal with on a regular basis and would be the last person they would want to piss off.

The tricky part will be when one subcontractor finishes and the next one sets up shop. Hopefully they communicate to each sub.

Good luck, brother.
