Hammer & Grind : Built For Contractors

EP177: Understanding and Preventing Scope Creep in Contracting


Listen Later

Everyone who works as a contractor has to deal with scope creep. It means that the scope of a project is slowly changed or added to, usually without proper approval or paperwork. This can make things more expensive, take longer, and create frustration for both the contractor and the client.


In this episode, Brad talks about:


  • Factors leading to scope creep
  • Detailed scope of work in estimates.
  • Identifying red flags in client communication.
  • Charging fees for change orders.
  • Direct communication with clients about additional work.
  • Padding estimates for unforeseen circumstances.
