Is WA state a full balance or unpaid balance lien state?

WashingtonRight to Lien

Washington State homeowner has paid contractor (our customer) in full. We have not been paid by contractor and intend to file a lien on the property. Owner will dispute our lien based on his payment in full to contractor. My most up-to-date info is from 2019 and I would like to have more recent confirmation for WA state. Is the homeowner responsible for the full balance or only the unpaid amount of the contract?
