If I hired a company to rebuild my porch and paid the company in full when they finished , can the workers put a lien against my house if they aren't paid by their boss?
If they are strictly employees of the contractor, probably not. But if they’re contractors hired by the contractor/company you hired, they could be considered subcontractors and would have the right to file a lien. There are deadlines for notice and filing the lien that would have to be met as well.
