Construction software for Texas contractors
Texas has no statewide general contractor license but has some of the most contractor-specific lien rules in the country. Sledge makes sure you never miss a deadline.
Texas construction by the numbers
Texas compliance you cannot ignore
Monthly lien notices on residential projects
Texas requires subs and suppliers on residential projects to send monthly notices to the original contractor and owner to preserve lien rights. Miss the month, lose the lien.
Source →Retainage rules and early release
Texas Property Code Chapter 53 governs retainage. Proper notice procedures are required for both retainage funds and for releasing retainage early on projects.
Source →Prompt Payment Act
Texas Prompt Payment Act requires owners to pay GCs within 35 days of receipt of invoice, and GCs to pay subs within 7 days. Late payment triggers interest.
Source →Sales tax on construction
Texas treats labor and materials differently under sales tax rules. Separated contracts vs lump-sum contracts have different implications. Getting it wrong is a common audit finding.
