On a new home build does the builder have to notify the owner they plan to file a mechanic's lien before it actually gets filed with clerks office? Can a "member" of the company file the lien for the builder company? As in, a contract is signed by 1 person that owns the building company, but then another person in the company files the lien with the clerk's office?...Read More

I am building a new construction home. The concrete contractor poured concrete. It is not level, cracking and popping horribly. We have offered to pay 50% to cover his materials which is generous due to the amount of repairs that are needed. The contractor filed a lien 2 weeks after the work was completed and issues were discussed. He wants $1000 more than we are offering. He had admitted guilt in writing and refuses to release the lien unless we pay him that. The original amount is $8700. He wants $5700. We offered $4700. What are our options? ...Read More

I'm getting ready to file a lien on a property I supplied General Contracting work for, here in Kentucky. I'm stuck on the "full price state". I'm not sure if I quite understand it. For reference, my contract value was $61,700. The owner paid me $17,500. We completed approx 75% of the contract when the contract was cancelled. So, how much should I file the lien for?...Read More

Concerned, we just had a general contractor do a horrible job and he obtained the certificate of occupancy July the 3rd. 2021. Upon moving in we had water enter our home from the backyard damages estimated 4,500 to correct and unknow what the correction will be to excavate and correct lay of the backyard. We discovered plumber failed to exit the vent through the roof, it was left in the attic. (We have corrected this ourselves). He failed to ensure proper framing was done as we discovered upon moving in that a complete dormer was omitted. We knew a window below the dormer was but we didnt make a big deal due to it being already framed and would have caused a slow down on our build ( had we noticed the missing dormer at that time, we would have felt very differently about this error.) He also had to tear out 30 % of the driveway because he failed to confirm location of water lines from home. He claimed that he was covering the error when they redid the section. Lots more its embarrassing that we let him roll on but we didn't get concerned until the build was 80% done and we had our old home under contract. He is askinf US for an additional $28,000! When I add his invoices up the total shows we should have a balance of approximately $21,000.00 left in our build account! We have an attorney but havent had a one on one with him yet. Does this Builder have a right to file a lien on our home? ...Read More
