When unpaid on a construction project in Ohio, you may have the right to file a mechanics lien.
n Ohio, a mechanics lien on residential projects must be filed within 60 days from your last date of furnishing labor and/or materials to the project. While the deadline is 60 days, Ohio limits the amount that can be recovered to the unpaid balance due to the general contractor at the time of the lien. As such, it is important to file a lien as early as possible. This marks the expiration of that period, and your claim of lien for this project must be filed before this date.
Who should you send this notice to?

Notices are typically served on the property owner and, for sub-tier parties, the general contractor. However, depending on the type of notice, it can be helpful to send notices to anyone else who is in charge of your payment, like a lender or surety company on the project.
