Yes--but there are specific pre-construction notices that must be given, so see a real estate attorney in your area for details on your state's laws.

No


As a general contractor do subcontractor injuries affect the EMR of the General Contractor?

No. They will not affet the GC because they are two different entities. This method of rating is also similar to the OSHA Recordables and 300 Log. A GC will not report accidents on his/her report for an accident that occured to a subcontractor. This is of course limited if the incident involves multiple parties, then it could have an affect. The easiest way to tell is if the GC has to file a claim or not.


A developer owes money to a subcontractor how does the subcontractor lien the property?

File a Mechanic's lien (the form is available on the web) with the County Recorder against the property where you performed the work. The developer will not get paid by the owner of the property until all liens have been released. However, you had to have served a Preliminary Notice for the work you were going to perform on the General Contractor to be able to file a lien against the property.


A contractor and his subcontractor are working the same job and the sub damages the contractors equipment whos insurance pays?

The contractor should make a claim upon the sub-contractors insurance and/or bond. If the sub-contractor defrauded the contractor on having insurance and/or bonding in place then he should report the contractor to the State licensing board, file claim on their insurance, and civil lawsuit (if the insurance company does not directly file or pay).

If you pay a contractor to remodel your kitchen and he fails to pay for materials used can a lien be placed on your home?

Speaking under WA law, yes. Any subcontractor who furnishes labor or materials can file a lien against any property that he works on. But the subcontractor is required to provide written notice to you before you pay the general contractor that he may claim a lien so you may make checks payable to both firms (RCW 60.04.031). Because state laws very greatly, I suggest you contact a construction law attorney in your area (look for one who gives "free consultations" --see the phone book).
