<br />OWN E R S
<br />
<br />If you hRve hired a contractor to do the work, do not sign the installation list. The
<br />homeowner's signature on the installation list indicates that he or she is thf party res-
<br />ponsible for the work. If the contractor obtains the permit, the contractor s signature
<br />on the installation list indicates his responsibility for the work. If the contractor s
<br />work is defective, the County will require corrective action by the party who took out the
<br />permit and signed the installation list. Furthermore, if the contractor is not licensed
<br />as required by law, the homeowner can be violating state law by permitting an unlicensed
<br />person to do this work, The penalty for the violation is a m1sdemeanor. For your pro-
<br />tection, make the contractor si~n the installation list. If the contractor wishes you to
<br />sign it, that is a good indicat10n that he is not qualified or licensed to do the work,
<br />
<br />Since you or your contractor have applied for a building permit for work to be done on
<br />
<br />property owned by you, you should be aware of the following:
<br />
<br />Any person who furnishes labor (a contractor, subcontractor, or laborer) or
<br />supplies materials for repairs, improvements, or new construction may be enti-
<br />tlea to a lien against your property if he is not paid in full by your contrac-
<br />tor, even though you have pa1d the contractor in full.
<br />
<br />In order for your payments to your contractor to be "proper payments", there are certain
<br />steps you may take in accordance with Florida's Mechanics Lien Law. Although these steps
<br />are optional, they may afford you some protection,
<br />
<br />1. Before any work is begun by you or your contractor, file a Not:ice of Commencement
<br />with the Clerk of the Circuit Court. Florida St~tutes, Section 713.13, specifies
<br />the information required on the Notice of Commencement.
<br />
<br />2. Before you file the Notice of Commencement, be sure to check with your construction
<br />moneylender, as premature filing may affect your loan.
<br />
<br />3. Post a certified copy of the Notice of Commencement in a conspicuous place on the
<br />front of the pro:perty where the work will take place. The notice must be J?osted
<br />before any work 1S started, but not more than tnirty (30) days before work 15 be-
<br />gun.
<br />
<br />4. Upon completion of the work, require a sworn statement (affidavit) from your con-
<br />tractor which states that he has paid all bills for labor and materials or lists
<br />those oersons or firms which have not been paid and the amount due each. Require
<br />this atfidavit before making final payment to your contractor.
<br />
<br />For added protection, you may request that your contractor furnish you with a performance
<br />andlor payment bond. You or your contractor on your behalf can obtain a bond through most
<br />general lines insurance agents. While the cost of the bond will be borne by the owner, it
<br />provides the most complete protection available against the possibility of having to pay
<br />t\l.'ice.
<br />
