Upload your projectA clearer read
The question is not “is this normal?”
It is “what, exactly, is different from the agreement I already have?” RafterSignal puts both documents side by side and gives every observation a place to look.
Scope, line by line
See added, removed, revised, and potentially overlapping work in plain language.
Money with context
Surface changed allowances, new fees, markups, taxes, and missing labor or material detail.
A better contractor conversation
Leave with practical questions about payment timing, schedule, warranties, and supporting detail.
The review path
From two files to a calmer next step.
No verdicts. No invented details. Just a structured read of what the documents say—and what they leave unclear.

Ask with clarity
Use the questions list to follow up with your contractor or a qualified professional.
Read the fine print
Useful context, not professional advice.
RafterSignal distinguishes verified document facts from possible discrepancies, missing information, and matters that may need professional review. It does not replace legal, construction, or financial advice.
Your report should make the next conversation more specific—not make the decision for you.
- Document facts are labeled and referenced when possible.
- Unclear wording stays clearly marked as unclear.
- Jurisdiction-specific questions belong with qualified professionals.
