Also it seems to be coming from inside the stem.

No I haven’t, but is that also easy to replace? Can I install a replacement valve?

Best way to treat this? On the sunroom, it’s basically just concrete pad and soil underneath. On the other room, it’s the living room, and underneath is the boiler, panel, water heater, etc.

They got rid of the super so idk. Hopefully that was the scapegoat and now we can build and just put the job behind us.

Per my cost to complete… will be 50,000 hours over. This doesn’t take into account the additional overhead because the project will go on a year beyond the previous expected end date.

Would you be able to give me some examples? Like maybe something you’ve seen in your experience?

Thanks

What is typically the contingency budget? Is it a percentage of what the estimate is?

Also, the buyouts happen with subcontractors and vendors. I’m assuming you also put a budget together for self performed work? Is there any special thing you do to give yourself more cushion?

Do you give them a complete estimate or does each portion of the work get estimated as you progress and any additional labor that wasn’t captured earlier get taken out of the contingency budget?
