Hello - question; we are a general contractor, who contracted a cabinet subcontractor for a residential project. Have been trying to for 6-8 weeks to get sub back onsite to finish cabinets, as not complete/onsite and many outstanding corrections. Sub has placed a lien and stop notice and is demanding payment of invoices (which would equal 97% paid) of contract balance, there is excessive outstanding cabinet corrections, missing cabinets and incomplete finish carpentry. To date have paid 86% of subcontractor contract. $796,112.78 Total Contract $682,395.00 Paid to date $113,000.00 Balance $78,000.00 Approved bank funds, HOLD/not paid due to non-performance $26,000.00 Balance (apprx) $80,000.00. Demanding pmt of : $110,000.00 Per contract outstanding work/cabinets not completed equal If we hire another sub to complete just corrections only, $38,500.00. Lien has stopped all funding project. Cannot pay other trades currently. Tried all avenues to come to terms, perform or quit, partial pmt, progress pmt, will not meet to review pickup list, requested schedule for completion. Only feedback is demand to pay invoices. The lien/stop has not recorded at this time. Client has engaged a lawyer (non Construction) to pressure to resolve legally. What can I do to resolve or pushback to sub to completed/get project completed, and/or release lien/stop notice. Lien/Stop notice filed in vengeance, as substantial outstanding work, sub not workable to agreement. Holding up entire project. Thank you for your assistance.
