Yes we filed a lien on a project which went to the GC's bond. The claim was against the Subcontractor that hired us. The GC has since sent over the subcontractors bond information. What should be done now that we have that information.

VirginiaI live in Virginia and recently had a roofer's estimator give me an estimate. Yesterday he informed me he has put a mechanics lien on my property because the Roofer Company didn't pay him for giving me an estimate. No work has been done, I initially signed the contract but the next day notified the Owner and estimator that I would not be doing the work. Can the estimator do this and what actions can I take?
VirginiaJust want to know what I can do to get this lien off my property.
VirginiaThis is not mentioned in the Code but required when going to Land Records to record lien.
VirginiaI am a contractor. I have completed the roofing replacement on 6/26.
They are not paying for it over 3 months
Virginiawe have done labor installation on a project in Charlottesville Va and wan to file a lien
we were working under a sub-contractor to a licensed prime GC.
VirginiaGC paid sub for work he did, he believed he should have gotten the rest of $$ for completing2/3 of work, GC said he did not perform 2/3 yet, so will not get finale payment. He had a fit, she offered to bring in an inspector to decide if he completed said 2/3, another fit and said no. He is also claiming in lien materials not there, but not telling of his improper use of materials and GC having to purchase more materials. Also seeking more monies for travel and lodging because he thought he should get more but was paid the agreed upon amount. And now he says he should get the monies for having to travel to site and unable to do work because no materials were there to work with and could have taken other jobs. Does he have a valid lien?
VirginiaA customer is questioning why we are requesting the information to file a preliminary notice on a hospital construction project for which we will be renting, erecting, relocating and removing for the masonry contractor.
VirginiaContracted company to replace windows and do specific siding repairs. We were told it would take 2 to 3 days. 38 days later the work was not complete and some not done to standard. We negotiated a price of $1,500 less than estimated to accept work "as is" and we paid such through our financial institution. My wife wrote up a factual review of the company afterward which was non-inflammatory but did reflect the negative characteristics of the work completed/not completed. One month later, in retaliation, the company placed a $1,500 lien against our home. The way I found out was by verifying our mortgage had sent the correct payoff documents to the county records office and it was they who notified me of the lien, not the contractor.
