Record the lien with the clerk of the county in which the project is located. Cost to record a lien with the Denton County Clerk’s Office is $26 for the first page and $4 for each additional page. The office does accept out of state business checks. Make the check out to DENTON COUNTY CLERK. Include a self addressed stamped envelope.
