    Retainage

    Retainage Release Request (North Carolina)

    Ask for retainage back in North Carolina, with the state's own release clock and its statutory citation already in the letter: 7 days on private work. Read the notes: this is a business letter, not the statutory notice your state may separately require.

    Medium risk

    Check your contract first. Consider a peer review before sending.
