REPAIR COST / ILLUSTRATED GUIDE
How should extra work be handled?
Ask how an unexpected condition will be documented, priced, and approved before work continues.

Show the condition
Ask what record will identify the discovery and why it changes the proposed work.

Explain the price
Ask how the additional scope is calculated. An allowance is not automatically the final price.

Get approval
Agree on who can authorize the change and how it will be recorded. Keep the approval with the original scope.
