Why this form matters
⚖️

Legal protection on every extra

A signed change order is a binding mini-contract. Without it, "you said it was included" becomes a fight you'll probably lose — or settle cheap just to get paid.

💰

Triggers payment before you start work

Most contractors do the extra work and hope the invoice goes through. This form documents scope and price before the first nail — so collecting isn't a negotiation.

🛡️

Dispute insurance for every job

If a customer claims they never approved an extra, you hand them the signed change order. The conversation ends. Paper beats memory every time.
