Public permit records show 42 total permits on file in the City of Orlando, 22 of which are specifically classified as Pool permits. The busiest single year was 2021 with 3 permitted pools, and the company has pulled at least one new permit every year from 2019 through early 2026. Currently 6 permits are open, and 12 have been finaled — meaning inspector-approved completions are verifiable on the public record.

Permit valuations — the declared construction cost submitted to the city — have risen sharply over time. In 2020 the average was $18,500; by 2023 it had reached $49,850; 2025 projects averaged $60,000 per permit; and the single 2024 permit came in at $110,000. Keep in mind permit valuations are the builder's declared value and may not include design fees, landscaping, or screen enclosures. Use these as directional benchmarks, not firm quotes.

The company is based in Kissimmee (830 John Young Pkwy #840, FL 34741) and permits most of its work within the City of Orlando jurisdiction. Lake Nona South is by far its most active neighborhood with 7 permits — more than double the next highest area. College Park follows with 3, East Park with 2, and single permits appear in Lake Nona Central, Lake Davis/Greenwood, Florida Center North, Southport, and several other neighborhoods across the metro.

Of the 42 total permits on record, 22 are Pool permits (52%), 9 are listed as Other, 4 are SFR (single-family residential), and 1 is a Fence permit. This means roughly half their permitted workload is pool-specific, while the other half involves broader residential construction — so the company is not exclusively a pool builder. All pool-specific permits are pulled under the Certified Pool/Spa Contractor license CPC1458511.

As of June 2026 there are 6 open permits, which is high relative to recent annual permit volumes of 1–3 per year. The most recent permit was filed February 23, 2026 for a $75,600 pool at 12636 Snell Lane in Lake Nona South. Two additional 2025 permits — an $61,000 pool in Southport and a $59,000 pool in East Park — also remain open. The backlog suggests active work in progress; ask for a realistic timeline estimate before signing.

Google reviews average 4.6 stars from 234 voters, while Yelp shows 3.2 stars from 22 reviewers. Positive reviews most often mention on-time project delivery, the crew's professionalism, communication throughout the project, and clean workmanship. Multiple reviewers specifically praised owner Manuel Izquierdo for accurate timelines and transparent pricing. Critical reviews — several rating 1 star — frequently describe delays/stalling (mentioned by 5 separate reviewers) and communication lapses mid-project.

The FL DBPR license CPC1458511 was issued in 2014, giving the company over a decade of documented operation under the same qualifier, Manuel A. Izquierdo. Public permit records confirm activity from at least 2019 onward, with 42 permits across 13 distinct Orlando-area neighborhoods. The consistent permit activity across multiple years supports the licensed-since-2014 claim as representing real, ongoing market presence.

At least one documented customer review — from Dhani Sanborn in February 2024 — describes Bluescape stepping in to finish a pool that had been abandoned by a contractor who filed for bankruptcy, completing the remaining work and pool enclosure in 6 weeks. If you are in a similar situation with a stalled project, it is worth asking specifically about their experience with mid-project takeovers, pricing for partial-completion scopes, and what permits they would re-pull.

Yes — Lake Nona is clearly their strongest market by permit count. Lake Nona South alone accounts for 7 of the 42 permits on record, and Lake Nona Central adds another. The most recent open permit (Feb 2026, $75,600 at 12636 Snell Lane) is also in Lake Nona South. Homeowners in the Lake Nona master-planned communities can consider Bluescape an experienced local option, though you should still verify current availability and timeline commitments in writing.
