I started working on a job last month and have not been able to cover my payroll i am $90,000.00 out of pocket. Contract is for $371,848.00 and i am already $155,578.75 in invoices plus $90,000.00 out of pocket all the time i invoice they make lower my invoice amount. I dont cover my labor i am hurting so bad on paying my labor and scared if i walk off the job i will get sued. I feel like i have been taken advantage of. They knew i had manpower for the job but yet not the cash they always tell next invoice you can invoice more and they slice it in half like a tomato. What can i do?
IdahoWe got a contract with a construction company that just wants us to pressure wash their cement and wondered if we had to have a Idaho’s contractors license to be able to do that?
IdahoI am a concrete contractor, and have done multiple projects for this GC. I am now over 30 days from invoice date on a project. The GC is refusing to pay because of a small issue on a seperate project Completed several months ago.
IdahoGeneral Contractor has paid the Subcontractor who rented equipment from us. He states if we continue with our Lien, he will have it thrown out & claims the Sub was hired to do a job, failed and when he declined to fix the problems he created, he left the GC with no choice other than to replace him. At that point the Sub had performed 35-40% of the work, for which he was paid $15k. The Sub's response was to bill the GC for 90% of our contract amount, and as the GC needed those funds to complete the work originally promised by the SUB, he cannot give the sub the 90% left on the contract. That is what the GC is saying the Sub's basis for claiming non payment.
My question is can we still file a lien on the project even thought the GC did provide me a copy of a check that was paid to the Sub showing the $15k payment & it was cashed. Thank you for your time.
IdahoI hired a cabinet guy to build and install cabinets. After countless times on the project the cabinet guys work has failed and failed. After speaking with my customer after the 6th time of them on the the project we allowed them todo there job. In return after they left there work was hiding bad cuts and covering scratches with silicone and stain. Half the drawers done shut, cabinet boxes don’t even fit standard cooking supplies ext...As of now my customer does not want them back at all. They want to pay us to finish the whole project. I’m holding out half of there payment. What is the right way to terminate and finish?
IdahoI'm a handyman in idaho. I was recently on a job in Fruitland idaho where the people did not pay me for my services. I bought a door for $700 and installed it in a day into his shop and put in some threshold pieces on some flooring I installed. They owed me $2800 for my labor and materials. I have two contracts saying they would pay me the last 10% owed on the entire project plus the cost of the door and for installing a vent for them. And multiple texts saying they woukd pay soon as I installed the door and the threshold pieces. They pushed the date out about 1 week for me to come out and wanted me to come out on a weekend I did as they wanted. After I completed the job he simply Said if I wanted to be paid then I'd have to take him to court and to get off his property having to leave the door. I just put in and installed. I told him the door was my property and that this was theft. He said I took to long to come out and I took to long to do the project. There was never any completion dates in are contract. They put completion dates on me as I was working that were unreasonable and setting me up for failure. I still met there deadline working sometimes tell 2:00AM. I later said to him I'm not going to be bullied and harrased through out this project expecting more things for free from me. ... Can I file a lien I have two signed contracts and text messages promising payment. I feel I was tricked to install the door and do the work that they had this planned out for me to purchase a $700 commercial door . Not once did they mention my quality of work but just stated I took to long. I feel I was taken advantage of here and bullied put of my work. What can I do? Can I ask for more money then what is owed because of financial problems this us causing for me do to breach of contract and Losses of opportunity. I work through Thumbtack its kinda like Uber but I pay for leads. I'm a Top Pro handyman on there site. I gave 48 good reviews and a 4.8 star rating and was rewarded top pro 2 years in a row. Because of lack of money I don't have money for more leads from Thumbtack until I get paid more money. It's costing me money not being able to work.
Idaho A representative from our construction company got contractors license for state of Idaho. Does an officer of the corporation need to be the one to sign it or the one who did the exam and got the license?
IdahoA lien was filed claiming attorney fees, we know an attorney was not involved. Does the notarized form constitute fraud or perjury.
IdahoI made the final payment to the contractor in August. During the walk through there were many things wrong, He wrote me a check for $2000 until it was completed. It has never been completed after 6 months, so I paid to have the work done. I let him know the expenses and he threatened to put a lien on my house for the $2000.00. Does he have a leg to stand on? The entire construction process was a nightmare, and what is appraised for 80,000 he charged $225,000. all paid in full
IdahoI have a contractor that's initial bid was $1750 for a project, they increased it to over $4,000 and are now threatening to file a lien.
In addition, the initial contract was from company a, the nephews uncle's business, but the final invoice was from company b, the nephews company. What are my rights? This seems completely invalid. They're basically of the mindset that the initial quote doesn't matter and we should pay them for whatever work was completed, which apparently they can come up with whatever they want after they start work, and just put a lien on our property if we don't pay it. Company has been formed for less than a month. Basically an 8-hour job turned it into a 15 hour job with tons of extras. We're prepared to pay for some of the extras but not everything.
IdahoWe have a lien against our business. The oral contract was between the contractor and the bartender of our bar. There has been no contract provided or evidence of materials. Receipts etc..is this legit?
Idahoi don't have contractor lic but cleaned this house that was full of animal feces, urine mice and bugs garbage, painted interior landscaping ect owner and i had verbal contract we were also doing trade for a truck for the work ,i have received nothing
IdahoI have a contractor who is building my house and I can’t get him to do any work on it. We gave him $285,000 that he put into a local builders supply company. He refuses us to show us all of the invoices so we have no idea what happened to our money.He is building another house at the same time. I suspect he has used some of my money to build the other house because I self funded the project. Is there any risk to me if I file an intent to lien on the other property
IdahoI've just been notified that the property that I have a mechanics lien on has been sold and I still have not been paid my amount of Tulane
