Liability

Washington

Hello, Our customer has submitted a job sheet whereby they are being hired by a GC to help install a new pool in a strip mall for a tenant claiming to take full responsibility for payment. The owner of this property has given permission to do this and says the tenant is fully responsible for payment. I'm assuming the owner is still responsible whether they realize this or not? Additionally, it turns out this tenant has bought into this large pool franchise for this particular location. Would this exclude the franchise from any responsibility? We want to ensure we're covering all of our bases here. Thank you!

The Lien for the amount of the improvement to the property must be recorded against the real estate within 90 days of the stoppage of the labor. Notice of the Lien should be provided to the property owner, and the general contractor within 14 days of the recording of the Lien. The tenant should also be notified upon the filing of the Lien.
