Let's talk Lien Waivers...

[Julie Hill]

We are still learning so sorry for the newbie question!!   FINALLY almost done with a project and getting lien waivers signed by the main contractor and the main subs.  The GC didn't have a General Contractor License so in the contract, it is worded that he is operating under another company's license.  I just told him I need that company to sign a waiver as well (because I don't know what kind of deal he made with them) and he's literally telling me he doesn't know how to get a hold of him.  Ummmm... huh??  Is this a big deal if I don't get someone from this company to sign this doc?  It sounds like he literally just put some company's name.  He said he talked to him ONCE awhile back.  WTF?  This is obviously my fault for not asking more questions.  I mean if the guy doesn't even know that my contractor named him, I would hope it's not a big deal.  Especially now that we are DONE
