Legal Question in Construction Law in New York

Payment of Service Rendered

I had a dispute with a contractor about unfinished work and shoddy work done..when it came time for billing I requested we sit and talk and presented my side about issues. He told me to come up with a figure on items I felt were not completed to satisifaction or not addressed at all. I came up with a figure, submitted a check to him and noted on the check it was final payment for work done. Can he come back after cashing the check and ask for more money?
