A mechanic's lien can be enforced to obtain payment for work that adds value to personal property. True/False?

Are you asking if you can attach a mechanic's lien for unpaid work? Yes you can. Does it add value to the house? No..it complicates the selling of the house if there is a lien on it.A mechanic's lien can be enforced to obtain payment for work that adds value to personal property. True/False?
By personal property I assume you mean property other than real estate. So, for example, if you take you car to a mechanic, and then fail to pay the mechanic for repairing it, can the mechanic enforce a lien against the car? Generally, yes, but subject to state laws, which vary considerably.
