Texas provides contractors with robust lien rights and prompt payment protections, but these require specific contract language and procedural compliance. Texas also has unique fund-trapping rights for subcontractors and mandatory prompt payment penalties that must be structured correctly in contracts.
Subcontractors need contracts that preserve monthly notice rights, fund trapping procedures, and direct action capabilities against property owners. Texas law provides robust subcontractor protections, but contracts must include specific language to access these rights effectively.
Absolutely. Houston’s oil & gas projects involve complex safety protocols, environmental compliance requirements, and specialized insurance provisions. These projects often have multiple prime contractors and intricate payment structures requiring careful contract coordination.
Texas requires specific monthly notices for subcontractors, advance notice for lien filings, and prompt payment act compliance. Missing these deadlines can cost you significant collection rights, so contracts must clearly establish notice procedures and deadlines.
Houston contracts must address hurricane season work stoppages, weather-related delays, and force majeure provisions. Texas law provides specific protections for weather delays, but contracts must include proper language to access these protections.
If the provided contract is inadequate (under 4 pages), heavily one-sided, or you’ve experienced payment problems with similar agreements, custom creation typically offers superior protection. We’ll evaluate your situation and recommend the most effective approach.
Approximately 65% of our clients begin with contract review. However, we frequently recommend custom creation for enhanced protection after analyzing inadequate agreements. We’ll always provide honest guidance about which approach best serves your project needs.
