Seeks,
you would have to discuss this with the contractor to see if there is ANY room for negotiation.
Keep in mind, your point of view is that there are multiple runs that can be done at the same time as others, BUT, do you know the added effects of this?
It can be much more difficult to manage 5 spools of wire than 3. All it takes is one spool to keep rolling and it's down the ladder you go.
We price at $100 per line. 2=$200, 4=$400, and so on. There is no break when doing multiple runs.
It also appears that he gave a full credit for the changed items.
