Client Project Proposal

Most residential disputes come from what was never written down. A proposal that states inclusions, exclusions and payment terms in plain language closes faster and protects the change-order conversation later.

Who uses it

Any residential contractor quoting work — HVAC, roofing, plumbing, remodeling and specialty trades.

What the generated document includes

  • Scope of work written for the homeowner, not the inspector
  • Explicit inclusions and exclusions to prevent scope creep
  • Price and payment terms such as deposit and balance on completion
  • Your business details, license number and insurance for credibility

Mistakes that get it kicked back

  • Leaving exclusions blank — unstated exclusions become free work
  • Quoting a lump sum with no payment schedule, which delays the deposit
  • Omitting the license number homeowners use to verify you before signing

Requirements vary by jurisdiction. Always confirm final submittal requirements with the authority having jurisdiction before filing.
