Swimming Pools in Alcoy

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking to install a swimming pool in Alcoy, you have come to the right place. Living in the capital of the L'Alcoià comarca is a privilege, but as we locals know, our inland climate is one of extremes. While our winters are crisp, the summer heat trapped between the mountains can be intense for the approximately 60,372 residents who call this city home. Whether you live in the historic center or in one of the beautiful surrounding urbanisations like Montesol, El Baradelló, or the peaceful pine-filled areas of El Estepar and El Tossal, having a private oasis is a necessity rather than a luxury. At TuExterior, we specialise in transforming outdoor spaces into functional retreats. We understand the specific terrain of the area, from the rocky slopes near Sargento to the flatter plots in the valley. Regarding investment, in Alcoy a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the dimensions, materials, and specific site access requirements of your property.

Regulations and Permits for Swimming Pools in Alcoy

Navigating the legal landscape in Alcoy is essential to ensure your investment is protected and compliant with local laws. The primary regulatory framework is the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) of Alcoy, which dictates where and how structures can be built on residential land. Depending on the scale of your project, you will likely need to apply for a municipal permit at the Ayuntamiento de Alcoy.

For smaller interventions or prefabricated structures, a "Comunicación Previa" or "Obra Menor" permit might suffice, which is a faster process. However, for traditional built-in pools that require significant excavation and structural work, a "Licencia de Obra Mayor" is typically required. This involves submitting a technical project signed by an architect or engineer. Additionally, while the UNE-EN 13561 standard specifically governs the safety and performance of external blinds and awnings (often installed alongside pools for shade), the pool construction itself must adhere to the Spanish Technical Building Code (CTE) for safety and water hygiene. We handle the technical documentation to ensure your pool respects the setbacks from boundaries and the maximum buildable area permitted in your specific urbanisation, whether you are in El Estepar or the urban core.
