Kansas Warning Statement Form

Fill out the fields to download the free Kansas Warning Statement Form. This form may be used by subcontractors and suppliers working on an existing property. This form satisfies the Kansas preliminary notice requirement for parties in this case.

Who should use the Warning Statement form

Subcontractors and suppliers who are working on an alteration or repair to an existing property (not new construction) must provide a warning statement in order to retain the right to file a Kansas mechanics lien if they are unpaid. Sub-tier parties on new construction projects must use a different form, known as a Notice of Intent to Perform.

General contractors and other parties who contract directly with the property owner in Kansas are not required to provide a preliminary notice or warning statement.

How to use this form

After downloading the form, fill out the form fields completely and accurately. Once completed, the form must be sent to the property owner at any time during the project prior to filing a lien. It’s best practice to provide this warning statement form at the beginning of the project to ensure timely payment.

This form was prepared by construction attorneys to meet the requirements found in Kansas Code § 60-1101 et. seq., as adopted by the Kansas Legislature.
