Mechanic's liens are governed under Title 10, Chapter 603 of the Maine Code. In Maine, persons providing labor or furnishing materials or equipment without a contract with the owner should serve the owner with a Notice of Furnishing to protect their lien rights.

If labor, materials or services were not furnished by a contract with the owner of the property affected, the owner may prevent a lien by giving written notice to the person performing or furnishing the same that he will not be obligated to pay for that work. 10 M.R.S. section 3252. The person furnishing labor or materials can act first by serving the Notice of Furnishing before the owner provides a notice of non-responsibility. By doing this, he or she preserves lien rights.

A notice of furnishing identifies the parties, relevant dates and payments, the location and a description of the materials and/or services. Submit the completed, signed, and notarized document to the local office responsible for maintaining land records, and give the property owner a certified copy of the recorded document.

The service was prompt and attentive to my questions. I would've just appreciated a heads up that I also needed to contact the county directly (and provide contact info) to receive a certified copy of the document (Notice of Commencement) in order to submit the certified copy to the Building Department. This was an extra step that I haven't had to complete before using another eRecording service. Even if this extra step is a result of the county's system. I would still have expected a head's up (since there wasn't any info regarding this on the county's site for eRecording).

I needed a quitclaim deed to transfer ownership of a home. An attorney wanted $400.00 to file the deed. I downloaded a blank deed for my area from deeds.com. I received it instantly. (Small fee) it came with instructions and a template. I filled it out and submitted it to the County Clerks office.it was simple and I saved a lot of money. There may be other forms you need, check with whoever you are submitting the deed.
You'll have additional fees, but that is up to the municipality in which you reside. It will be helpful if you have the latest deed on file.
It was much easier than I thought. This is an easy website to navigate through and it is 100% legitimate. I recommend Deeds.com.
