North CarolinaI'm a crane rental company that was hired by a tree service company to work on a private residence. The tree company was paid and has not paid me for the 6/29/21 rental and is not returning our calls or emails. Can I file a lien against the house we worked on or should this go to a suit?
North CarolinaIlm a home owner and hired a HVAC contractor to replace our aging heat pumps. The invoice had what woucl amount to contract terms incluing a completion date in mid Novemeber. It was silent as to canellation. He started to delay in Dec 2020 by stating he had the equipment in his covered trailer but thought he had Covid-19. Tests showed he did not have Covid-19. For the next 6 months he continued to have medical issues and said he could not perform. For the most we were sympathic and continued to ask him to give a completion date. He gave us dates then at the last minute cancelled. In June he final didn't show because he worked late the night before and was tired. We stopped being sympathic and continued to ask for an install date. Finally in June, he stated he had secondary exposure to Covid-19 and self quarenteed, then stated that installing our system was a priority. We acknowledege reciept of the notice. In Mid-August our system crashed. We sent a text ending the contract, mentioning our system crashed and requested a refund with in 15 days. We left the ball in his court while we contacted other HVAC contracts. With in a week one was able to install the system and we contracted with them to do the job. No deposite was required and we got financing. Now what do we need to do to recoup our deposit and not be held in breach of contract? Will he able to get a mechanics lean?
North CarolinaHello,
My question is specific to funding or allotments on the draw schedule related to appliances, hardware, windows etc.. Say for instance line 32 reads windows and doors and the draw amount is for $40k am I correct in saying that the builder has determined $40k will be need for all windows and doors? However, if I am not happy with his selection of windows or doors is it my right to try and find the windows and doors that meet our expecations with the $40k he has budgeted for? Of course if I should go over the $40k amount then I understand it comes out of my pocket.
Thank you in advance for your help
North CarolinaCan a contractor require full payment of payment and performance bonds before paying a sub-contractor a draw?
North CarolinaWe own our own business and we contracted a job to hang drywall and mud it by the hour. The home owner is refusing to pay whats owed and want us to finish the job for less than whats owed. Can I put a lean on the house for work.
North CarolinaWe filed a lien on the house and the customer paid part of total left. There is still a balance and the customer is not responding to us at all. What steps can we take at this point?
Thank you

North CarolinaHi I rented a crane to a tree company in North Carolina who did work on a privately owned home, has been paid by homeowner and not paying me. Am I able to file a lien on the property? I didn't send the Notice to Lien agent within 15 days after service, does that prevent me filing the lien now?
North CarolinaRemodeler/Contractor to finish deck rails Owner buys all materials He wants $1000/day 2 skillled 1 semi-skilled, 1 go-fer
He is stating that he feels the job will take 4 days and wants $2000 up front
I feel like he should do some WORK before a draw of any kind If hes short on cash then close of day, but even that is short for the owner...what if he doesnt stick with the job and complete? Owner liability again and delays completion of project.

North CarolinaI provided my construction services to a company. They owe me the last two invoices, he doesn't want to pay me. I want to know if there is something I can do to get my money?
North CarolinaWe are a subcontractor in Mecklenburg County, NC and wanted to know if warranty work is considered in the 120 days you have to file a lien. For example, if the last date we worked on the jobsite/provided material was in 2020 but in May 2021 we had to go to the jobsite for warranty work as well as paid a subcontractor that we had to hire, could we count the 120 days beginning in May 2021 when we did warranty work?
Thank you!
North CarolinaI spent 14.5 hours deep cleaning a house. I told the owners a deep clean rough estimate started at $280, but I would not know the total cost until I was finished the job. The house hadn't been cleaned in a long time. Plus the had a 100lb pig, 3 dogs. Inside pets. The pet hair and grime was on doors, base boards, walls windows, furniture bed frames, everywhere-every door, windowpane, etc. had to be wiped with a new rag 3x. With crud critter or windex. Ceiling fans~black hunks of dust so think I used 12 swiffers on 3. Dog urine on basement floor. So I'm painting this picture to make one understand the labor & materials were triple of a normal deep clean. They refuse to pay when they get invoice because they say I quoted $280. I threatened calling the Police for "Theft of Service" they begrudgingly paid $280. I was to put a lien on their house. Can I? I also removed mold from the tub.
