        "text": "Changes to the project scope, often called 'change orders,' are typically handled through a formal amendment to the original contract. This process involves documenting the requested changes, outlining their impact on the timeline and cost, and obtaining your approval before any new work begins. Clear communication with your general contractor about any desired modifications ensures transparency and prevents misunderstandings.",
