Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Louisiana

My friend has been building a house for the last year. The original completion date was supposed to be 4 months ago. She recently received a move in date of the 19th of this month. When no work had been completed in the past 5 days, she questioned the Contractor about the status of the project. His response was a text that said she is banned from the property until it is completed and he has changed the locks. She owns the property and the construction is being paid through an established bank account via draft. Is it legal for him to lock them out of the house?
