PROJECT PREPARATION / FREE TOOL
The score is not an approval or prediction. It shows which research inputs are complete, partial, or missing so conversations with Pool Builders start from the same brief.
A preference in someone's head is not the same as a shared project brief. Record intended use, property information, budget boundaries, approvals, scope, decision makers, and evidence still required.
Many site and permit questions cannot be resolved before professional investigation. Marking an item partial is better than guessing. Name the responsible person, evidence needed, and stage when the question must be closed.
Take missing and partial items into each Pool Builder conversation. Ask every candidate how the uncertainty would be investigated, priced, approved, scheduled, and documented.
PRACTICAL ANSWERS
No. Feasibility still depends on property conditions, approvals, design, engineering, utilities, budget, and qualified professional review.
Not always, but a consistent use brief and known site information make proposals easier to compare.
Equipment, finishes, access, covers, startup, seasonal operation, warranties, and service obligations affect design and ownership.
A project-specific contingency can help manage uncertainty, but its amount and control should be discussed with appropriate financial and project professionals.
Resolve the highest-impact gaps first rather than treating the score as failure. Jurisdiction, site information, access, scope, and budget boundaries usually influence many later decisions.
