Q1: What if we encounter more than the specified 900 square feet of subroof deficiencies? Will we be able to submit a change order or be able to recoup the additional cost of repairs?

A1: If the contractor runs into unforeseen conditions of sub-roof repair not visible during the site visit, which is above and beyond the 900 square feet required to be included per the specifications, then work should be stopped, and the park will address it as we see fit which may be through a modification. The contractor should not immediately fix the issue and seek reimbursement later!

Q2: Can we drive on the grass to approach the buildings in order to remove the old shingles?
