Yesterday was Change Order Day, where we caught up with Steve on all the on-the-fly modifications we've made to the contract as the project's progressed. A couple hundred bucks here, a couple hundred there, extra pocket door, heat shielding around the radiators, Avonite edge materials, etc.
Then the bill for upgrading the basement floor. Our $1600 allowance for vinyl flooring didn't quite cover the NEARLY $5000 IT WILL COST TO INSTALL THE LINOLEUM WE WANT.
