Weather delays are handled through two mechanisms: buffers built into weather-sensitive phases at schedule development, and documentation of legitimate weather events that trigger excused delay provisions. We build cold-weather concrete cure windows into every foundation scheduled between October and March. We build a weather buffer into exterior work phases. For legitimate weather events — conditions that make work unsafe or impossible per industry standards — RainFire Builders documents the event, the affected phase, and the duration of the impact, and communicates the schedule effect to the client in the weekly update. We do not claim weather delay for conditions that experienced Utah contractors should plan for as normal. Cold temperatures in January are not a surprise; they are a specification and scheduling constraint that was known at the time the schedule was built.
