Description
A true Scope of Work (SOW) is not a quote or a vague one-page pitch tag—it is a legally binding document detailing every task, material, and labor item for your project. If your contractor won’t or can’t bid line-by-line, they are not the right fit.
This dynamic workbook breaks down structural estimation into 5 core, 15-minute lessons to completely transform how you deal with crews.
Inside the 14-Section SOW System:
-
Project Identification & General Conditions: Tracking permits, dumpster pulls, utilities, and daily cleanup standards.
-
Structural Execution: Framing modifications, header sizing rules, and electrical/plumbing rough-ins.
-
Finishes & Delivery: Complete cabinet profiles, insulation specs, paint sheens, and payment milestones tied to lender draws.
Key Course Takeaways:
-
The Red-Flag Language Spot Check: Learn to strike out hazardous placeholder terms like “Allowance of $X”, “As needed”, “To match existing”, or “Demo as required” that contractors use to pad bills later.
-
Mid-Tier Flip Cost Benchmarks: Includes standard baseline metrics for full kitchen overhauls ($18k–$28k) and standard bath guts ($6.5k–$12k) to sanity-check your bids instantly.
-
The Bid Comparison Framework: A step-by-step methodology to force multiple builders onto your exact SOW to safely expose outliers.
