Generally, you are not required by statute to serve another preliminary notice assuming the content of your iniital preliminary notice was correct and it included an estimated value with a rational basis at the time. That said, may practicioners (myself included) think it is a good idea to serve an amended/supplemental preliminary notice so as to fulfull one of the primary purposes of the preliminary notice -- to protect owners, lenders, and GCs against secret and unanticipated liens. Some like to follow the "Arizona Rule" and serve an amended/supplemental notice when you hit 120% of the original estimated value.
