Signed Statement
A clear sworn statement by an authorized representative confirming that specified work was completed on stated dates; signature should match corporate records when applicable.
Affidavits of Completion provide a clear, contemporaneous record that work was finished to contract terms, supporting final payment, lien releases, and dispute resolution. They reduce ambiguity in acceptance and create a notarized chain of evidence for owners, lenders, and regulators.
