Either the price is contractually fixed or it isn't
Before you sign, look for three specific things.
1. Weekly late-delivery penalty
If the deadline isn't backed by a penalty for every week of delay, it's not a deadline. It's an aspiration.
2. Scope defined line-by-line
Good quotes have a line-item breakdown with unit prices. Not "masonry — 1×". That's where "unexpected" add-ons are born.
3. Change-orders only with your written approval
Look for a clause that says change-orders can be invoiced only after your written approval of the specific price and deadline.
