I am the home owner. We live in Townhomes. A pipe leaked into my neighbors garage in our common wall with a pin hole leak. He called a plumber he had just had out. I just had back fusion surgery so I wasn't there when the plumber arrived. I assumed my neighbor had gotten a price. He did not. The plumber said it (and says it in his bill) that it was a simple straight forward repair. It ended up taking this guy 7 hours (which I wasn't aware of) before he gave up soldering and put shark bite fittings on it late at night. (which my neighbor could have done himself) and then he disappeared. He is now telling me my bill is $1405.00. I think that is unethical and he is trying to fleece me as he never gave me any price or hourly rate and just kept working. Appreciate the feedback....Read More

I brought a house in Centerville, Va, and after I brought the property, a lien was put against the property, I have been to the lien company, and the gentlemen that put the lien on my property is not there anymore, the company, stated that they don't know where he is, the address and phone number that was given to the company, doesn't work, and there is no way of getting in contact with him, I went to court (4 Dec 2020), and I have informed that I have to resolve this with the company, I went to the company, and they informed me that "They don't know why the lien was placed on the property", so please, I need to know what to do, thank you...I can be reached at 202-604-6970, Neena Kundi, email address - kundineena@gmail.com, thank you......Read More

I'm a plumbing sub working g for a gc. 144k project. Gc gave a task to another sub and sent me a change order to subtract 18k. And other things. They have chipped away at my numbers and have not issued me change orders for things I have done at thier request. I kept working as to not violate and hold up the job. They always distract from the issue and don't want to discuss. Job is almost done. They havnt reciebed final draw from ups and I just got my final inspections. Is this the time to file lien to give me negotiating power? Should I file myself or reliance attorney? If the latter, then who? Waldorf md. My cell 2318180524. Best to initiate with a text. Thank you. ...Read More

A sub contractor filed a lien against my house claiming i owed him $5600. I had already paid the contractor the agreed upon amount. It is my understanding that the sub, by statute, has 8months to file suit against me or the lien no longer is valid. thanks, Nancy...Read More

My roofing contractor cashed my check for more than half of the job on July 23. It is now December 4, and I am trying to get him to finish the final details. The job is full of mistakes, damage, and broken promises. The contractor approached me with a bill for almost $4,000 more than the original contract I signed. It is for stuff that should be inclusive, like drip edge, valley metal, and demolition. He has threatened me with a lien and sprayed me with gravel from his truck and cussed at me. Can he put a lien on my property for more than the signed contract and before the job is finished? I wrote him a letter three weeks ago asking him to finish the job so that I may pay him. He showed up with a padded bill. He has told me in writing that he is not making enough money on my job to make it a priority....Read More
