Mechanics' liens exist to protect two general categories of workers or suppliers, prime contractors and subcontractors.

Anyone that furnishes labor or materials on a work of improvement is entitled to file a mechanics' lien on the property where the improvement is located. 


These rights exist whether they are contractors, subcontractors, laborers, or material suppliers.

In any business getting paid is a concern. Collecting payment for a contractor is especially difficult, as the work performed on the project is not something that can be repossessed should a customer fail to pay as agreed.
