What to settle before requesting final bids
Use the same checklist with every company so that a low initial number does not conceal missing work or allowances.
- Confirm Coral Gables Development Services is the correct permit authority for the parcel.
- Ask whether tree, swale, right-of-way or landscape work creates a separate review.
- Measure equipment and excavation access before accepting the construction method.
- Put protection and restoration of walls, drives, landscaping and irrigation in writing.

Coral Gables Pool Builder Q&A
Which permit authority covers a pool project in Coral Gables?

Should I obtain more than one proposal?
Yes. Give each builder the same desired features and request a written scope so differences in excavation, structure, deck, equipment, drainage, barriers and allowances are visible.
How do I verify the contractor?
