The deadline to enforce a Texas mechanics lien claim depends on the project type.
For residential property, the lien must be enforced by the later of:
1) 1 year after the last date on which the lien could have been filed; or
2) 1 year after the project is completed, terminated, or abandoned.
For non-residential projects, the lien must be enforced by the later of:
1) 2 years after the last date when the lien could have been filed; or
2) 1 year after the project is completed, terminated, or abandoned
