If he's not licensed, how can he get a mechanic's lien?

He can't. This very issue has been through the courts already. Not only can't he get a mechanic's lien on the house, he doesn't even have legal grounds to collect the money owed him. The courts have ruled that, like a minor, an unlicensed "contractor" cannot enter into a "contract" for such services. It also happpens to be a crime on his part to do so.
Tell them to find a good construction contract lawyer and sic him on the "contractor". If he's really not licensed, they're in very good shape.
P95, it is a inspectors paradise and a private citizen's hell.
But if you asked those same private citizens if they were FREE I'd bet that 95% of 'em would say YES and wonder why you asked...
