VNS Corporation d/b/a Choo Choo Lake Oconee “VNS” sued Craig Hill to enforce a materialman’s lien on Hill’s real property. Hill appeals from the trial court’s order granting summary judgment to VNS, contending that factual questions remain regarding the amount of the materialman’s lien. For the following reasons, we agree. Therefore, we reverse and remand.

Summary judgment is proper when there is no genuine issue of material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. OCGA § 9-11-56 c. A de novo standard of review applies to an appeal from a grant of summary judgment, and we view the evidence, and all reasonable conclusions and inferences drawn from it, in the light most favorable to the nonmovant.
