This document is signed by the contractor, subcontractor, or supplier after they have been paid in full, and it legally waives their right to file a mechanic’s lien against your property for the completed work.There are two main types of lien waivers:Conditional Lien Waiver – Becomes effective only when payment clears (use this if you’re issuing a check or waiting for a transaction to process).Unconditional Lien Waiver – Takes effect immediately upon signing, meaning the contractor cannot later claim unpaid amounts and file a lien (use this only when you’re certain payment has been fully made).To protect yourself, always require a signed and notarized unconditional lien waiver after making final payment.
