Assuming that your primary residence in Florida qualifies as your homestead under Florida's homestead laws, generally liens other than those for taxes, mechanics liens and mortgages can not attach to one's homestead.

Think again. Yes they can put a lien on your property since it was for the "improvement" of the property.
