In Utah, all preliminary notices must be filed online using the state construction registry or SCR. This is the same website where you can find the previous preliminary notices filed on the project.
Generally, a lien claimant must record a notice of construction lien either 180 days after the original contract reaches final completion or 90 days after a notice of completion is filed with the Utah State Construction Registry, whichever is earlier.
Utah statutory lien waivers don't need to be notarized Some contractors and owners may elect to require their lien waivers to be notarized. If the lien waiver provisions in the construction contract do not interfere with any of the statutory regulations, then the terms will be enforceable.
What is Preliminary Notice? Preliminary notice is a notification to the owner or general contractor of a construction project to notify them that a contractor, sub-contractor, materials provider, or other party is reserving their right to file a mechanic's lien in the event of non-payment.
§ 78B-2-225(3)(a), which provides that: “an action by or against a provider based in contract or warranty shall be commenced within six years of the date of completion of the improvement.” The Utah Supreme Court has established that Utah Code Ann. § 78B-2-225(3)(a) is a statute of repose.
The State Construction Registry (SCR) helps original contractors stay informed about who is working on their project. The SCR provides a list of all parties that have provided goods, services and/or equipment to a project, and have preserved their lien rights by filing a Preliminary Notice.
