A builders lien is also known as a lien on land. It secures a claim for payment for work done on—or materials supplied to—a construction project or for repairs or renovations made to an existing structure. When a lien is registered in the Land Title Office, it becomes a charge against the title to the land or property involved. | A builders lien is also known as a lien on land.
