Construction Claim Examples: Sample Reports (PDF)

Each sample is a watermarked PDF of the complete report, built from illustrative figures. They show the layout, the line-item detail and the formula citations you get in a paid report, without using real project data.

Reviewing a construction damages claim: what to check before you accept the number

Sample Construction Delay & Extended Overhead report

What these samples show

Each sample is the complete report built from illustrative figures rather than real project data. They exist so you can see exactly what a finished ClaimDuke report contains before paying for one: the cover page, the full line-item breakdown with every intermediate sub-total, the methodology page naming the formula and its assumptions, the supporting-documents checklist and the transmittal letter.

The layout matters as much as the numbers. A damages exhibit that shows only a total invites a lump-sum counter; one that shows each component separately lets a reviewer accept the parts they agree with and argue about the rest, which is usually how these get settled.

How a sample differs from a paid report

The samples are watermarked PDFs. A paid report is unwatermarked and carries your own logo, company name and letterhead and it arrives in three formats: a live-formula Excel workbook where changing an input updates the totals, an editable Word document and a PDF. The underlying calculation, the methodology and the citations are identical, you are paying for the assembled, branded, editable artifact rather than for the arithmetic, which is free and unlimited.

Who these are for

General contractors and subcontractors assembling a claim; construction and insurance attorneys who need a defensible preliminary damages figure before committing to a strategy; public adjusters and restoration contractors preparing supplements; claims consultants and forensic accountants who want the arithmetic and citation trail assembled rather than rebuilt; and owners or developers evaluating a claim that has landed on their desk.
