If any owner fails to comply with an order issued pursuant to § 150.52 or with an order as modified on appeal to the Commissioner of Housing, Buildings, and Construction, the officer may cause the property to be repaired, or removed if repair is not feasible, and all fire hazard conditions remedied, at the expense of the owner. Such expense may be enforced against any property of such owners and the officer and those employed to do the work or who furnish materials or equipment therefor shall have a lien for such expense on the real estate or property involved.
