How do I file a lien on a home I did work on but I contracted with a third party

UtahMechanics Lien

My name is Greg Carter and Dan Ellis as a girlfriend and she needed a deck on the back of her house improved on I gave them a written quote and required a 50% down payment to start Dan paid me the 50% deposit and I started work on the deck after some of the items were completed he wanted to do more work and to add more wood to make the deck look new Dan bought a lot of the wood and then he also paid me to to purchase some of the wood we agreed on labor pricing for the additional items he wanted done he also agreed to pay me 2 haul off the old deck to the landfill and wanted me to do some waterproofing on a sliding glass back door spent several weeks working on the improvements and was almost done I only had a few touch-ups and some painting left and the project would be complete he told me on the last day then he didn't want me back on the job and that he wasn't going to pay me 4 those things that I had completed because he didn't think I was doing a good job he told me I needed to deal with a general contractor that I have no previous contact with and was in no negotiations conversations prior to him not allowing me to finish so I talked to that general contractor he looked at the work he said it was good and Dan was being unreasonable and didn't know why he was being difficult so my question is his girlfriend owns the home and he is the one that set this all up and was paying for everything but I need to put a lien on the home that is her name how do I do that?
