However the more expensive one can start immediately (I am pressed on time). Do I have to deal with any permits, NOC, etc. just for a paint job for the walls of my condo?

I had some new windows installed and there was a Notice of Commencement filed. The 1 year time limit has expired. The window vendor installed the incorrect windows with the incorrect tint. Several windows are still on back order. I am refusing to pay the window vendor the balance until he replaces the windows with the incorrect tint. No liens were filed during the first year when the NOC was valid. Since I am refusing to pay the window vendor until the correct windows are installed—and there is no valid NOC since it expired—can the window vendor file a valid mechanics lien on my property? Should I refuse to sign a Second Notice of Lien and hold off having them do any work to put more leverage on them as they don’t want to replace the windows with the incorrect tint?...Read More
