Mechanic’s Lien Warning:
  • Understanding Mechanics Liens: Anyone who contributes to improving your property but remains unpaid may record a mechanics lien against your property. A mechanics lien is akin to a mortgage or home equity loan, secured against your property and officially recorded with the county recorder.

  • Even After Full Payment to Contractor: Even if you pay your contractor in full, unpaid subcontractors, suppliers, and laborers who contributed to property improvements can still record a mechanics lien. They have the right to sue you in court to foreclose the lien.

  • Preserving Lien Rights: If a court validates the lien, the right to record it is preserved. Each subcontractor and material supplier must provide you with a document called a 20 Day Preliminary Notice. Note that this notice is not a lien itself; it serves to inform you that the sender has the right to record a lien on your property if payment is not received.

Protecting Yourself from Liens:
  • To safeguard against liens: Obtain a comprehensive list of all subcontractors, laborers, and suppliers involved in your project. Ensure that every individual has been paid in full after the completion of each project phase. Document these payments in writing.

  • Remember: Taking proactive steps is crucial; otherwise, you risk having a lien placed on your property.

Late Payment Terms & Conditions:
  • Payment Due Date: All invoices issued by the Contractor are due and payable within 30 days of the invoice date, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.

  • Late Payment Fee: If the Client fails to make any payment due under this Agreement by the due date, then, without limiting the Contractor’s remedies under this Agreement, the Client shall pay a late fee on the overdue amount at a rate of 3% per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. The late fee shall be calculated daily and compounded monthly from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount.

  • Right to Stop Work: The Contractor reserves the right to stop work if payments are not received by the due date. Work will resume once full payment is received.

  • Collection Costs: If the Contractor needs to engage a collection agency or attorney to collect overdue amounts, all collection costs, including attorney’s fees, will be payable by the Client.
