Change Order Template
Updated 2026

Stop losing money on Interior Designer projects.

One 'misunderstood' mood board turns into a twenty-grand custom sofa you're stuck paying for because the client flaked. Without a signed lock on your specs, you’re just an interest-free bank for a homeowner’s indecision.

Pro Contractor Tip

Hammer a 'Limit of Liability' clause into the deal so you aren't the one paying the deductible when a sub-contractor cracks a load-bearing wall or ruins a client’s antique rug.

Client Ghosting

Without upfront financial commitment, clients can disappear mid-project.

Infinite Revisions

Without a documented scope of work, you risk doing unpaid tweaks forever.

Chasing Checks

Waiting 30 days for a paper check severely impacts freelance cash flow.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Interior Designer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone understands the deliverables before work begins.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I do when the client keeps asking for 'tiny' design revisions?

Stop working for free. Your contract needs to define the exact number of revision rounds included; anything extra gets a Change Order attached to it so they feel the cost of their own indecision.

How do I stop clients from 'window shopping' my ideas and buying the furniture elsewhere?

Put a 'Procurement Management' fee in the agreement that guarantees you a percentage of the project budget or a flat sourcing fee, regardless of who swipes the credit card at the finish line.

Who is responsible if the furniture won't fit through the front door on delivery day?

Make sure your contract states the client is responsible for site access and final measurements; if you don't document that it's their house and their problem, you'll be the one paying for the crane.
