It is best to lien the project and then make a formal bond claim thereafter. You say "ordered" and "sent April 26," was the lien actually filed with the Clerk? Depending on the amount of the lien, you may want to speak to a construction attorney, please let me know if you need assistance.

What do you mean "ordered out a lien?" You have to serve a lien on the contractor and property owner and file the affidavits of service in a time certain. has that been done? the next step would be to foreclose. You could make a section 76 demand for an accounting, as well.

You should get help from a mortgage processor. When they haven't taken any action yet, you should take the initiative. We shouldn't wait because every contract has a fixed term Elastic man
