OPINION

FORSBERG, Judge.

This appeal is from a foreclosure of a mechanic’s lien and an award of attorney’s fees. The trial court hearing the matter without a jury determined that respondent had substantially completed performance of the contract and had filed the mechanic’s lien within 90 days of the last day of work. The court awarded respondent Blooming-ton a mechanic’s lien and judgment, both in the amount of $23,135.76, which included $11,150.00 in attorney's fees. We affirm the finding of substantial performance and modify the award of attorney’s fees.
