FloridaI would like to know specific licensing requirements for a pressure washing business in the state of Florida. Is there a need to have an occupational license to operate legitimately within any county or city? Thanks!
FloridaThe company refused to pay us for our services, so we sent notices to intent to lien and notice to owners along with negative google reviews.
He contacted me today and said he will send payment once the Unconditional lien release is signed notices to owners are retracted and negative reviews removed. but if I signed the lien release I wont be able to file a lien in the future, what if he doesn't send payment or what if he sends a check and it bounces ?
I appreciate any advise
This is what he specified in the email:
"Attached is the lien release, I will release the payment of $XXXXXX once the lien release is completed and returned, all negative reviews are removed from all social media sites, and all notice to owners are retracted.
(Company Name) , Inc. will immediately release payment once all the above is met as we discussed and agreed on while one the phone."
and this is the verbiage of the unconditional lien release:
- UNCONDITIONAL Waiver for FULL Payment
This document waives and releases lien, stop payment notice, and payment bond rights the
claimant has for all labor and service provided, and equipment and material delivered, to the
customer on this job. Rights based upon labor or service provided, or equipment or material
delivered, pursuant to a written change order that has been fully executed by the parties prior to the
date that this document is signed by the claimant, are waived and released by this document,
unless listed as an Exception below. The claimant has been paid in full.
Thank you,
FloridaCan your company provide a service of helping file a public lien again residential real estate (not commercial) wherein a vendor repair company (Roofer, AC, Plumber, Windows, Solar, Pools, etc.) provides in house financing and accepts direct payments from the customer. The customer would welcome the lien and it would be voluntary without need for the "mechanics lien" process. Upon loan payoff the lien would be released.
FloridaI have a contractor in Florida who didn't finish work agreed upon and thus, they were not paid in full. They have filed a lien against my property. They filed 88 days after substantive completion of work, which I know falls within the 90 days. But they never notified me. I've heard they're required to notify you within 15 days of filing. Is this true? If it is, does this render this lien voidable? What process do I go through to get this thrown out?
FloridaI am a prime contractor and have given no notice for anything. Can my first notice ever to the customer be a notice of lien? (due to non payment before my 90 day period expires)
FloridaHi, I want to know the process I must take. Our company was subcontracted to do work. The contractor signed a proposal that agrees to deliver full payment upon completion. It has been 3 months and we still have not received payment. every time we ask he gives an excuse saying he didn't get paid yet. Which is none of our concern because that wasn't in the contract. What is the step I must take to go about getting payment? We are in the State of Florida, and we did not do a Notice to owner before we started the work.
