NOTICE TO OWNER


Under the California Mechanics Lien Law any contractor, sub-contractor, laborer, supplier or other person who helps to improve your property, but is not paid for his/her work or supplies, has a right to enforce a claim against your property. This means that after a court hearing, your property could be sold be a court officer and the proceeds of the sale used to satisfy the indebtedness. This can happen even if you have paid your contractor
in full if the sub-contractors, laborers or suppliers remain unpaid.
To preserve their right to file a claim or lien against your property, certain claimants such as sub-contractors or material suppliers are required to provide you with a document entitled “Preliminary Notice.” Original (or prime) contractors and laborers for wages do not have to provide this notice. A preliminary Notice is not a lien against our property. Its purpose is to notify you of persons who may have a right to file a lien against your
property if they are not paid. (Generally, the maximum time allowed for filing a claim or lien against your property is ninety (90)days after completion of your project.)


TO INSURE EXTRA PROTECTION FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR PROPERTY, YOU MAY WISH TO
TAKE ONE OR MORE OT THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
1. Require that your contractor supply you with a payment and performance bond (not a license bond), which provides that the bonding company will either complete the project or pay damages up to the amount of the bond. This payment and performance bond as well as a copy of the construction
contract should be filed with the county recorder for your further protection.
2. Require that payments be made directly to sub-contractors and material suppliers through a joint control agreement should include the addendum approved by the Register of Contractors.
3. Issue joint checks for payment, made out to both your contractor and sub-contractors or material suppliers involved in the project. This will help to insure that all persons due payment are actually paid.
4. After making payment on any completed phases of the project, and before making any further payments, require your contractor to provide you with unconditional lien releases signed by each material supplier, sub-contractor and laborer involved in that portion of the work for which payment
was made. On projects involving improvements to a single family residence or a duplex owned by individuals, the persons signing these releases lose the right to file a claim against your property. In other types of construction this protection may still be important, but may not be as complete.
TO PROTECT YOURSELF UNDER THIS OPTION YOU MUST BE CERTAIN THAT ALL MATERIAL SUPPLIERS, SUB-CONTRACTORS OR LABORERS HAVE SIGNED.
