Actually, if you check the law, you will find that mechanics' liens apply to ANY contractor who provides services, materials or goods. Usually in construction projects.
If you go to www.google.com or any other search engine there is plenty of information to be found and you can search for laws that are applicable to the specific area you will attempt the action. Just be sure to spell it correctly. It is LIEN.
Good Luck, I hope you can recover some of your money. Imagine that, getting what is owed to you! What a concept.
