1

Match the scope before the price

The proposal should explain how size and complexity of the pool system changes the category and what additional work would require written approval.

2

Confirm permits and inspections for the address

Ask who verifies the requirement, obtains approvals, pays listed fees, schedules inspections, and handles corrections. Do not assume another city's process applies.
