The Missouri rules this page uses
- Original contractor: give the owner the Notice to Owner before receiving any payment, or there is no lien. § 429.012.
- Owner-occupied home repair (four units or less): subs need the owner's signed Consent of Owner. § 429.013. New residential property: notice of rights at least 5 days before a noticed closing. § 429.016.
- Anyone other than the original contractor gives the owner 10 days' notice before filing. § 429.100. The lien is filed with the circuit clerk within 6 months after the debt accrued. § 429.080.
- Suit is due within 6 months after filing. § 429.170.
Dates are counted in calendar days from the dates you type. Job Clock does not move a date for weekends or holidays, so treat each date as your last day. Public works follow different rules and are not covered here.
This is a calendar. It is not a law firm, and it does not mail notices or file liens.
How it works
- 1. Enter the job dates. Pick the state, say who hired you, and type the first and last day you furnished labor or materials.
- 2. See your deadlines. The page shows each notice, lien, and lawsuit date, with the statute section it comes from. Add them to your phone calendar or save the job on this phone.
- 3. Get reminders. With the $29-a-month plan, Job Clock sends an email and a text, in English or Spanish, before the dates. Only a company that signs up and asks gets them.
The free dates and the $29 plan
The dates are free
- Deadline dates for 14 states (Florida, Texas, California, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Virginia, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Missouri, Arizona, and Maryland), each with its statute section
- A calendar file (.ics) for your phone calendar
- Save jobs on this phone and print a job card
- Papers Clock: your own license, insurance, bond, CE, OSHA card, and permit dates, with a calendar file
- Everything in English or Spanish
The paid plan adds reminders: $29 a month for one company
- An email and a text, in English or Spanish, before your deadlines. On Florida jobs: seven days before the mail-by date and fourteen days before the claim-of-lien date. In every other state, the reminders are for the dates on your job card.
- On a Florida job with a permit number, the reminder names that number and the county's public permit search page.
- Reminders for your Papers Clock dates are included for now.
- After you pay, reply to your Stripe receipt email or email david.dukes77102@gmail.com with your job details, and the reminders are set from that email. Texts go only to people who opt in.
- Cancel any time before the next monthly charge.
Not in either one: Job Clock does not mail notices, file liens, pull permits, collect debts, or give legal advice.
Why it matters: missing one of these deadlines can end your lien rights on that job, and a lien is one way to get paid when an invoice stays unpaid. Job Clock shows the dates and reminds you. It cannot promise that a lien will hold or that you will get paid.
What someone pays for
The dates are free. The paid plan adds an email and a text, in English or Spanish, before the dates on this card, for $29 a month for one company. It covers Missouri jobs and your Papers Clock dates. Only a person who asks for the reminders gets them, and texts go only to people who opt in.
You can cancel any time before the next monthly charge. Job Clock does not take card numbers on this page, does not file papers, does not mail notices, does not pull permits, and does not give legal advice. Paying does not mean a lien will hold or that you will get paid.
After you pay, reply to your Stripe receipt email, or email david.dukes77102@gmail.com, with the job address, the county, the dates on this card, and English or Spanish. That is how the reminders get set. Use the same email to cancel.
