Hello,
Just wondering if the contract section below is in any way effecting my ability to file a lien against the General Contractor? (I am the Sub-Contractor).
13. Indemnity. In addition to the other indemnification provisions in this agreement, Sub-Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Contractor, and Project Owner, and their affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against the following, to the fullest extent permitted by law:
(a) All mechanic's and materialmen's liens, and all costs, attorney's fees and expenses incurred in connection with any such liens which arise by reason of or are related to the work or any part thereof.
Thank you...Read More

Hello,
I used to work for a large construction management firm in Boston, MA and recently started an underground utilities company. Dumb question, do lien rights still apply in the utilities industry where we are not working on a single private property but instead installing fiber optic conduit for a private internet provider within a municipalities right of way?
Thanks...Read More
We are the owner/GC of some vacation homes. Our real estate company actually owns it and my husband is the GC. We have two houses on one lot. We hired my former cleaning crew who also has a construction in Texas. (How do I find out if they are registered with the state of Texas)? In reading the frequently asked questions this website said they must be registered. We agreed to let them paint one house to start on one property (there are two). We supplied 99%%20of the material. They have been doing work for me for the past four years. They were to charge us hourly and have been $50 per hour. Never once did they tell me the hourly pay went to $70. Per hour. After my husband was on the job site watching them, the father never worked but held the ladder for the girls and moved scaffolding around for he and his wife who were doing the painting. We started asking about half way through the project what was their cost so far and to send us a bill which they never did until two weeks after completion. By this time, it took them five weeks to complete a 850 sq ft house. We decided they were taking too long so we decided to hire another contractor to paint the other house which took a week. We had two bids which were both $3,500 each. When we got the painting bill and they’re trying to charge me $5,200 which I am disputing, I have made an offer of $4,500 which I feel was more than fair considering it was over $1k than the other bids. When discussing the bill, they said their rate was now $70. an hour but was never disclosed to me. That’s where the disagreement begins. They are threatening to file a lien for the $750. difference. Do they have any rights to file?...Read More
I have a subcontractor who is pushing back saying invoice numbers are required to be included on lien waivers. I have lien waivers broken up by job/amount and through date. My template is provided by LevelSet and we did have it reviewed originally reviewed by an attorney. I can't find any language supporting their claim but want to be sure before telling them they are incorrect. ...Read More
We're coming up on 90 days since last doing work on a project. The owner, who we couldn't get onsite to punch the project, just visited the site this week & is requesting punch work to be completed. Will that extend our lien deadline by another 90 days. He owes us $52k. ...Read More

After the jobs were done, he sent me a lien waiver to fill out and have it notarized and sent back. the lien waiver says that that paperwork needs to be sent out in other to get paid in the following week it's been more than 3 weeks and he is not answering my calls now he said he will sue me for lien fraud if I try to do something against the properties. he does have a few lien waivers but not all of them i was wondering if i can do something with the liens that he actually has like voiding them or something or go after him since he told me straight up that he wasn't paying me. I have timesheets, lien waivers, text, emails, check stubs, copy of checks that were cashed out of my account invoices etc. Please I need help with this situation. MY PHONE NUMBER IS 720-487-2590 if someone can give me a call i will higly appreciate it. seems like there's more people struggling with this guy as well help me to help please....Read More
