How to use it
Write the changed scope in concrete terms, separate included work from exclusions, and state whether the price is an addition, credit, or no-cost change. Send the change order for approval before labor or materials are committed.
Show one clear total, explain any deposit or payment timing, and list added calendar or work days. If the schedule does not change, say that explicitly instead of leaving the field blank.
Give the change order a number, reference the original agreement, capture the approval date, and keep the signed PDF with the estimate, contract, photos, and invoices for the job.

Yes. Preview the document first, then download the PDF instantly or email yourself a backup copy.
No. A change order approves changed scope, cost, or time before or during the work. An invoice requests payment after the change is approved or a payment milestone is reached.
