Construction supply companies in Texas are among the most vulnerable to nonpayment — you deliver materials before payment, rely on a chain of contracts you didn't negotiate, and face strict statutory deadlines that can eliminate your lien rights if missed. Debt Collection Attorneys PLLC protects Texas construction material suppliers with aggressive mechanic's lien enforcement, bond claims, and litigation against contractors and property owners.
We assess your case at no charge and only get paid when we collect.
(214) 817-1450 Send Case DetailsTexas Property Code Chapter 53 gives material suppliers who furnish goods to a construction project a lien against the improved property — even without a direct contract with the property owner. However, perfecting this lien requires strict compliance with Texas's notice and filing deadlines. A remote claimant (second-tier or below) must send a monthly notice to both the property owner and general contractor, and file the lien affidavit no later than the 15th day of the fourth month after the last month materials were furnished. Missing these deadlines can permanently waive lien rights.
On Texas public projects — state and local government construction — all subcontractors and suppliers have the right to make a claim against the contractor's payment bond. Texas Government Code Chapter 2253 governs public payment bond claims with strict 90-day and 180-day notice deadlines. Private projects over $25,000 may also carry payment bonds. Bond claims often provide faster recovery than lien foreclosure and should be pursued simultaneously.
Texas Property Code § 162.005 establishes that construction payments are trust funds — money paid by owners to contractors, or by contractors to subcontractors, that must be used to pay suppliers and workers on that project. A contractor who misapplies trust funds (pays other debts instead of suppliers) commits a criminal offense and creates personal civil liability for the responsible officers and principals. We use the trust fund doctrine to pierce entity protections and recover directly from construction company owners.
