Question
A landowner hired an excavator to prepare a building pad for a fixed price. After work began, the excavator discovered an abandoned concrete foundation several feet below the surface. Neither party knew of it, and a reasonable precontract inspection would not have revealed it. Removing the foundation required specialized equipment. Before the original work was complete, the parties signed a fair written modification increasing the price for the extra removal work. The landowner later refused to pay the increase.
Which statement best supports enforcing the modification?
