Unbilled Change Order Chaos
Contractors and freelancers lose money because mid-job scope changes are approved verbally or scattered across channels and never get documented, approved, or invoiced.
In their words
customer asks for a variation mid-job, you do it, then they argue about it at invoice time and you eat the cost
client clicks a button and the estimate changes from pending to approved, and then the backend totals would update based on the the client approval
if this was to be a regular requirement then it should be chargeable on a cost per incident basis as it does consume resources
after 3+ weeks of back and forth there were literally 25 people on an email chain all over a $150 freight quote
What do you guys say when the customer replies "just add it to the bill"?
They also provided their employee time-tracking logs, but I have no practical way to verify or dispute those records.
all those little changes started messing with the schedule and materials
It seems as if the owner was under bidding everything and hitting clients with change orders right and left.
I used to just do it based on a verbal "yeah I will add it to the invoice" and got burned way too many times
One customer is holding about $30K because they're disputing a change order.
if my dad needs an $80-100/hr specialist mid-job, whether that gets absorbed or passed through basically depends on whether he saw it coming
Owners don't process or acknowledge change order proposals in a timely manner and then try to negotiate after the work is done.
Contractors and freelancers
Where they talk
- r/Contractor
- r/ConstructionManagers
- r/handyman
- r/Construction
- r/GeneralContractor
- r/estimators
- r/Homebuilding
- r/smallbusiness
Tools they use today
- Excel
- QuickBooks
- Jobber
- DocuSign
- Google Sheets
- Odoo
- Procore
- Bluebeam
Why those fall short
- no clean answer when customer says just add it to the bill
- assumptions not written down or tied to price adjustment
- email approval wastes time; verbal approvals lead to disputes
- AI quantities and costs are wildly inaccurate without project-specific data
- doing it manually in Google Docs is clunky
