My concrete guy gave me a fixed-price quote for the hole for my HDX-555.
The hole was supposed to be 5x5x7 but ended up significantly larger, so
he simply poured more concrete: 9yds instead of 6.5. Perhaps he had
already allowed for that possibility when he quoted, but I still paid
only what he quoted.
