Its a complicated process to know the deadlines to file a construction lien in Texas. Texas Easy Lien will help you understand what you need to know to exercise your lien rights confidently.
The notice requirements have deadlines. Here’s how the process works in Texas. Step 1: Invoice for the project To qualify for a lien claim, the subcontractor or supplier must first invoice for their work before the 15th day of the second month after performing the work. Step 2: Send a Pre-Lien Notice Letter The deadline for the pre-lien notice letter is one month sooner than the deadline to file a lien affidavit, but you can mail the pre-lien notice letter on the same day you file the lien affidavit, as long as the letter meets the pre-lien notice deadlines. Step 3: File a Lien The deadline to file a construction lien depends on two things: the month you furnished labor or materials for the project and where you fall in the project hierarchy.
