Texas Mechanics Lien Deadline Chart

Texas is unlike any other state when it comes to calculating its lien period.   Instead of a lien being due after a certain number of days or months, Texas uses somewhat cryptic language to define the lien period:  “on the 15th day of the month four/three months after the last month the claimant performs work.”

WHAT!?!?

Well, to help you out, we’ve created this chart.   You can take one look at this chart and easily figure out when your lien should be filed.   Remember, too, that you can keep track of project deadlines using our free Lien Pilot.
