Stop Scope Creep with One Meeting

Stop Scope Creep with One Meeting11 Nov 20251 h 01 min

Scope creep isn’t a mystery—it’s math, choices, and timing. Chris and Phil break down how projects quietly grow, how to protect your budget without gutting the design, and where to spend now vs. later. We cover square-foot cost realities (Southern Maine context), why basements and garages aren’t “free,” how to align program to budget, when to bring a builder in, and the critical fork where you either cut scope or raise budget. Plus: a Classic Bramble to keep things civilized.
