You mean how do you handle the possibility of escalating materials costs after the submit your bid? With a materials cost escalation clause.... there was a discussion of that not long ago (or maybe it was on JLC) and Jerrald came up with some language from the NAHB or somesuch, which I have if you want it.
Go ahead. It's always good to restate or repost information germane to the topic or question asked.
I think I missed that one by Jerrald, too, so I would like to see it.
