Chapter 53, briefly
Texas lien law in plain terms
- What a mechanics lien is
- A legal claim against the property you improved. It secures your right to be paid for the labor or materials you provided.
- Why Texas deadlines are strict
- Texas Property Code Chapter 53 sets fixed notice and filing dates. Miss one and the lien may be lost, no matter how clear the debt.
- Who can file
- Original contractors, who contract directly with the owner, and derivative claimants — subcontractors and suppliers — who must also send earlier notices.
Deadlines vary by role and project type — use the calculator above, or contact us and we'll walk you through it.
