OregonSign contract for roof replacement. Made down payment. Job was never started and can get return of down payment
OregonHello!
We had electrical work done on our house but recently found out from the city inspector that it didn’t pass inspection for several reasons and additionally, were informed the same day by a different licensed electrician that the work was extremely substandard and not well done, nor did the work meet the goal of what we wanted (moving from a 100amp panel + 60am subpanel to a 200 amp panel). We have disputed the charge with our credit card company and now the contractor is threatening to put a mechanics lien on the house along with taking us to small claims court as he believes the work was finished.
With regards to the mechanics lien, we never received any Oregon CCB documents prior to the work being done, so we’re wondering if that lien would even be legitimate on their end?
OregonI am a prime contractor. I did not file a preliminary lien?
OregonI provided labor on a residential structure as an employee working under a subcontractor who had a contract with the general contractor. Its been over 8 days since I provided my services and I havent gotten paid because the general contractor is refusing to pay the guy who hired me. Am I entitled to file an Oregon Lien to get paid for my labor? Am I required to serve the owner of the property with the Notice of Right to Lien even though its been over 8 days since I worked on the project?
OregonI know that not every states in the USA accepts Retainage bonds (for example, I know Tennessee doesn't while Washington does). Could you please provide a list of the states that do accept Retainage bonds?
OregonWe are a pipe fabrication subcontractor in Wisconsin and want to file a lawsuit in Oregon on the Red Rock Biodiesel Plant being Constructed by IR1 Group and funded by State Bonds.

OregonHi. I am writing as a homeowner looking to get some home improvement work done (previously hardwood floors, now carpet installation). Maybe it's because I'm not a native Oregonian, but I'm feeling uneasy about contractors wanting me to sign the Oregon Lien Rights document. I'm happy to make a commitment to pay the contractor, but the document seems to indicate that a lien could be placed on my property by any subcontractors or suppliers the contractor fails to pay or has a dispute with. Maybe I'm misunderstanding it, but it seems to put a lot of liability on the homeowner, to the point that I'm uneasy moving forward with projects. I've spoken with different neighbors about this and some seem to think I shouldn't worry about it, whereas others say they've never been asked to sign this document. I'm not sure what to do and am looking for clarification.
OregonWe have a California contractor that is not licensed in Oregon that is working on a commercial property and wants to purchased material from us. We will not sell if we lose our lien rights based upon the contractor not being licensed in the state of Oregon.
OregonI’m a sub contractor that hasn’t been paid for change orders or last contract payment. As soon as we requested payment For change orders the GC requested us to leave the site before finished. Do we request payment for the full contract amount and change orders?
OregonCan my property get a mechanics lien put on it from a tenant contracting when I had no knowledge of the contract? It sounds like they don't need to get a judgment first. Plus they didn't finish the job.
OregonI am an out-of-state supplier on a project in VA. I do not have a VA contractors license, but sold to a VA subcontractor. The project is a commercial building. If I have to file a lien, do I choose Private Lien or Suppliers and Equipment Lessors Lien? I am not clear on the difference.
