Imperial Cleaning is a contractor for monthly Janitorial (cleaning services) to a Client in NJ. Our client has not paid for services on the monthly cleaning job and supplies. We have invoices from January- June unpaid. We submitted a notice of intent to lien, however we have not heard back from the client. I was wondering If we could send a Mechanics Lien. The options only state Construction lien.
We have provided supplies and upkeeping for the improvement of the real estate property.
New JerseyWe are operating out of NM and the project was in NJ. We have are in process of filing a mechanics lien, is it worth it to send a letter of intent and a notice of unpaid balance?
New JerseyGetting a large deck rebuilt. $42K total.
Contractor wants $9k up front for materials, $17k before starting work, $13k once "decking" (top Trex surface) starts, leaving $4K payable upon completion.
I'm a homeowner looking to protect myself (and with zero intention of abusing the contractor financially), but understand that the contractor (not knowing me) is looking for a payment schedule most beneficial to him.
I have no problem paying for materials upfront, but feel that I should be paying (primarily) upon COMPLETION of milestones (footings, sonotubes placement/filling/code-official approval, ledger, beam installation, joist installation, etc) rather than BEFORE work is done. And leaving only 10% payable upon completions seems way too low. ..... too easy for him to "walk away" if we have a disagreement over workmanship. Notwithstanding my desire to pay upon completion of milestones, I understand that he is entitled to at least sufficient payments to cover materials and staff salaries as work progresses.
So........... what is (are) typical payment schedules for such a job. FWIT, I'm in New Jersey
New JerseyI just reviewed my roofing agreement that I was an estimate. It stated that payment will be $1000 plus insurance premium. The state adjuster I worked with was recommended by them and I had to payed him 15 % of my insurance settlement amount. Can I get out the agreement without getting a lien put on my property or paying the roofer 35% of my settlement since I no longer want to use them. I live in the state of NJ and they already completed 6 roofs in my neighborhood.
New JerseyWe signed a contract with an estimate cost amount and the work was to begin in June however it was delayed by the contractor and began on 7/11/22. Meanwhile his workers have not performed professionally and the work had to be redone several times, like the sparkling and painting. The first week they started they worked 5 days then four days the next week and then they worked 3 days a week for only 5 hours a day and now as of August they only worked 2 days. We have stressed our concerns and he kept saying that he will do better however after each conversation with him it gets worse. How do we cancel and get our money back for the down payment for the kitchen remodeling that has not began yet?
New JerseyWe are an Operations & Maintenance provider and the GC of the project wants to include the following clause in the contract, "Contractor shall not place any Lien or other encumbrance on the Facilities or the Sites."

New JerseyWe're a restoration company that has a bill due and have not been paid yet.
New JerseyI recently sent out a Notice of Unpaid Balance in association with a residential construction lien in NJ - where we also have to file an Arbitration Demand Letter.
I noticed that the Arbitration Demand requires a "Number Book Page" to be included. Does this information come from the county clerk's office upon filing the Notice of Unpaid Balance? And do I have to wait for this book page number before filing the Arbitration Demand Letter?
Thanks so much for your help!
