A generаl cоntrаctоr аdvertised in a trade publicatiоn that she planned to bid on the construction of a new building. The advertisement welcomed bids from subcontractors to perform various functions, such as plumbing, electrical work, and masonry. The lowest plumbing bid she received was from a plumber for $10,000. The general contractor used that bid in preparing her bid and submitted the bid to the client. Shortly thereafter, the plumber called her and explained that there was a mistake in his bid and he could not perform the work for less than $12,000. The general contractor was awarded the contract and told the plumber she was accepting his $10,000 bid, but the plumber reiterated that he would not do the work for less than $12,000. The general contractor hired a different company to do the plumbing work on the building at a cost of $12,000. She now sues the plumber for damages. What is she entitled to recover?
