Pool Quote FAQ

How do I compare two pool bids?

Compare the included scope, not only the total price. Confirm pool size, spa, decking square footage, equipment models, permits, dirt haul-off, electrical/gas, allowances, exclusions, and warranty terms.

Why can a lower pool quote become more expensive?

A lower bid may exclude site-specific costs or use allowances for electrical, gas, dirt removal, decking prep, or equipment upgrades. Those items can become change orders after signing.

Does PoolBidIQ rank pool builders?

No. PoolBidIQ is designed to evaluate quote completeness and comparison risk. It gives homeowners questions to ask rather than making accusations about builders.
