Get Paid or Get the Title — We Make It Happen
When a boat owner refuses to pay for repair work, you shouldn’t be left with the bill — or the boat. At KPG Lien Services, we help marine mechanics and boat repair shops across Florida file boat mechanical liens so they can recover what they’re owed — fast and legally.
Whether it’s engine repair, electrical work, or full restoration, your time, labor, and parts cost money. If the customer walks away, we help you take action.
A mechanical lien on a boat is a legal claim that gives you the right to recover unpaid repair bills — or take legal ownership of the vessel. Florida law protects marine businesses like yours by allowing you to file a lien, notify the owner, and, if needed, auction the boat to collect what you’re owed.
We make the process as smooth and compliant as possible:
1. Repair & Store
You complete the repairs and the customer doesn’t pay — or they abandon the boat. That’s where we come in.
2. Prepare the Paperwork
We help you gather and organize everything you need: work orders, boat details, proof of service, and storage info.
3. Send Legal Notice
By law, the customer must be notified within 7 business days of storage starting. We send certified mail notices with full payment details.
4. Publish Public Notice
If the customer still doesn’t pay, we handle the required legal newspaper publication to move the process forward.
5. File the Lien
We officially file the lien on your behalf, protecting your legal rights and starting the countdown to resolution.
6. Transfer Title or Auction the Boat
If payment still isn’t made, we help you claim ownership or coordinate a public auction. Either way, you recover your losses.

Boat repair is skilled work. If you’ve delivered a service and the customer ghosts you, you don’t need to chase them — you need a legal solution. A lien gives you the power to collect what’s yours and free up space in your yard or dock.
