The value
What Armor Plan costs vs. what one mistake costs
On a 2,400 sq ft home, an Armor Plan is about $4,200. If that home costs around $600,000 to build, the plan is about 0.7% of the build. A single costly change order can be bigger than the whole plan fee.
Your Armor Plan
~$4,200
2,400 sq ft new home. Often under 1% of the build cost.
| Without a plan | Typical cost |
|---|---|
| Moving a window after drywall and siding are on | $1,500–3,000+ |
| Forgotten outlets or plumbing found after drywall | $500–2,500 each |
| Vague bid leads to surprise extras and change orders | 5–10% of the build ($30,000–60,000 on $600k) |
| Allowances that were set too low run over | $5,000–20,000+ |
| Paying ahead of work that never gets finished | One draw: often $30,000–90,000 at risk |
| Bank delays from incomplete plans (rate locks, rent, storage) | $1,000–5,000+ |
Typical examples; actual costs vary by project, location, and timing.
A good plan does not promise that nothing will go wrong. It gives you the tools to keep your project on time and on budget: you know what you are building, what it should cost, and what to do when something changes.
Dream it. Plan it. Protect it.
