FAQ

ZoomLien is a service that helps contractors, suppliers, and property owners protect their payment rights by managing Notices to Owner (NTOs), lien deadlines, and other construction-related legal filings in compliance with state lien laws.

A Notice to Owner is a legal document that alerts property owners and contractors that you are providing labor, materials, or services on a project. Sending it preserves your right to file a lien if you are not paid. Without it, you may lose your lien rights.

Subcontractors, suppliers, and anyone not directly contracted with the property owner typically need to send an NTO to protect their lien rights. General contractors often don’t need to, but requirements vary by state.

Deadlines depend on state lien laws, but generally, an NTO must be sent within 30 to 45 days of first furnishing labor or materials. Missing the deadline could mean losing lien rights.

ZoomLien tracks deadlines automatically and ensures your documents are sent on time. This helps you stay compliant with lien laws and avoid the risk of losing payment rights.

If you fail to send an NTO within the required timeframe, you typically forfeit your right to file a lien. This could make it much harder—or even impossible—to secure payment legally.

No. A Notice to Owner is not a lien—it is simply a notice to protect your right to file a lien if necessary. It often prevents payment disputes before they escalate.

Yes. ZoomLien is designed to manage notices and lien rights across multiple projects, so you never miss a deadline regardless of how many jobs you are working on.

No. Each state has its own lien law requirements. ZoomLien currently serves Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, and we tailor your Notices to Owner and lien deadlines based on the rules in these states. For example, Florida requires a Notice to Owner within 45 days, while Georgia and South Carolina have different timelines and procedures. ZoomLien ensures your documents comply with the laws of the state where your project is located.

No worries—ZoomLien guides you step by step. You enter your project details, and we determine the right notices, deadlines, and filing requirements for Florida, Georgia, or South Carolina. This ensures you always stay compliant without guesswork.
