NC too!!!, we currently have a job 90K owed 90 days past from a MN GC. They are claiming paid when paid. Well they are getting a notice of lien waiver this coming week if we dont see a check. Contract is in NC you have to follow NC law.
 
Nothing like the joy of scrubbing a nasty old VW block in diesel to get it clean... Poor man's hot tank

Lols at the perspective here, makes it look tiny.

But also there's something fun about a block you can just pick up and drop in a large Tupperware.

These little boxer engines are wild little buggers

All that said, it’s why I’m very selective who I work with. In Jody’s world - if push comes to shove he has the option (as I did in my former life) of negotiating with suppliers or not dragging them out a bit. When you have to make payroll every week ….the options are significantly less.

Slight derail, but may be good info for others.
We ain't afraid to lein a property and actually have a lein on a motel in SC due to non-payment. When we get the property owner and/or GC involved when a sub isn't paying, it usually gets us a joint check or a CC over the phone.
But...what we have run into is with industrial customers who use our material to manufacture vs being a construction project. There's no GC to tattle to, no developer or property owner.
Just a head's up to others doing contract work in a scenario like this: set up a legally binding payment contract and protect yourself. Litigation is costly and very time consuming.
