Protect Yourself and Your Investment According to Florida law, those who work on your property or provide materials, and are not paid-in-full, have a right to enforce their claim for payment against your property. This claim is known as a construction lien.
FLORIDA'S CONSTRUCTION LIEN LAW ALLOWS SOME UNPAID CONTRACTORS, SUBCONTRACTORS, AND MATERIAL SUPPLIERS TO FILE LIENS AGAINST YOUR PROPERTY EVEN IF YOU HAVE MADE PAYMENT IN FULL. UNDER FLORIDA LAW, YOUR FAILURE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE PAID MAY RESULT IN A LIEN AGAINST YOUR PROPERTY AND YOUR PAYING TWICE.
Your Florida NTO is not considered valid unless it is received by the 45th day, which means you must leave time for the NTO to reach not only the owner, but all required recipients.
Here's the short answer: In Florida, all contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers, and vendors who did not contract directly with the property owner must send a Notice to Owner.

Even though sending a Notice of Intent to Lien is an optional (not required) step in the state of Florida, they are frequently successful at producing payment (without having to take the next step of filing a lien).
To attach a lien, the creditor must record the judgment with the county recorder in any Florida county where the debtor owns real estate now or may own real estate in future. For liens on personal property, the creditor files the judgment with the Florida Department of State.
A Florida mechanics lien must be in the proper format and filed in the county recorder's office in the county where the property is located within the required timeframe. To record a lien in Florida, you will need to bring your completed Claim of Lien form to the recorder's office and pay the filing fee.
In Florida, your Notice to Owner needs to be mailed within 45 days of when you completed your service or when you last received a payment. The notice must be served on the owner before filing the lien or within 15 days after you have filed the lien.
With that in mind, Florida's lien law generally allows contractors, as well as subcontractors, laborers, certain design professionals, sub-subcontractors and material suppliers to file a Florida mechanics lien.
