Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking to build a swimming pool in Benasau, you have come to the right place to turn your inland retreat into a summer oasis. Nestled in the heart of the El Comtat comarca, Benasau is a charming village with a small, close-knit population of approximately 171 residents. Whether your property is located in the traditional Benasau Núcleo, the peaceful area of Ares del Bosc, or near the scenic El Molló, we understand the specific challenges of building in this rugged terrain. Our inland climate here is Mediterranean but with continental influences; while we enjoy beautiful views of the Sierra de la Serrella, the summer heat can be intense, making a private pool an essential investment for comfort. We work across the entire municipality, including the Barranco de Ares surroundings, ensuring every project respects the local landscape. Regarding investment, in Benasau a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour and high-quality materials, depending on the slope of your plot and the chosen finish.

Regulations and Permits in Benasau

Navigating the legal requirements for a swimming pool in Benasau is a critical step that we handle with precision to ensure your project complies with both local and national standards. In the province of Alicante, and specifically within the municipality of Benasau, construction is governed by the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU). Because Benasau is a small village with significant rural surroundings, the classification of your land (urban vs. rustic) determines the type of permit required.

For most standard residential pools, we must apply for an 'Obra Mayor' (Major Works) licence at the Ayuntamiento de Benasau. This requires a technical project signed by an architect or engineer. If you are simply renovating an existing pool or adding a removable structure with a deck, it might fall under 'Obra Menor' (Minor Works), which is a simpler and faster notification process. Furthermore, for any peripheral installations like motorized pool covers or sunshades, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the safety and performance requirements for external blinds and awnings. We ensure that your pool's placement respects the mandatory setbacks from boundary walls and public paths, which is particularly important in the narrow streets of the Núcleo or the sloping terrain of Ares del Bosc.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in Benasau?
The cost generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This variation depends heavily on the size, the type of filtration system chosen, and the accessibility of your plot. In Benasau, the rocky soil near the Sierra de la Serrella can sometimes increase excavation costs compared to coastal sandy soils, but we provide a fixed quote after the site visit to avoid surprises.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, a municipal licence from the Benasau Town Hall is mandatory. For a new inground pool, you will need a 'Licencia de Obra Mayor'. This process involves submitting a technical project and paying the corresponding municipal taxes (ICIO). We can assist you in gathering the necessary documentation to ensure the process is as smooth as possible.
How long does it take?
From the moment the permit is granted and we break ground, a standard reinforced concrete or liner pool usually takes between 3 to 5 weeks to complete. However, the administrative phase for the licence in a small town like Benasau can take anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months, so we recommend planning well in advance of the summer season.
Do you cover Benasau?
Absolutely. We cover the entire municipality of Benasau, including the village centre, the outlying area of Ares del Bosc, and properties situated towards El Molló. Our logistics team is experienced in navigating the inland roads of El Comtat to bring the necessary machinery and materials directly to your doorstep.
What warranty do you provide?
We offer a comprehensive warranty that covers the structural integrity of the pool shell for up to 10 years. Additionally, the filtration equipment, pumps, and lighting systems are covered by the manufacturer's warranties, usually spanning 2 to 3 years. We pride ourselves on using high-quality components that withstand the temperature fluctuations common in the Benasau climate.
Can you build on sloping terrain?
Yes, many properties in Benasau and the Barranco de Ares area are located on hillsides. We specialize in "infinity" styles or reinforced retaining walls that allow us to build safe, stunning pools on uneven ground. This often requires a specific geological study which we coordinate as part of the technical project.
Is maintenance difficult in an inland climate?
The inland climate of Benasau means colder winters and hot, dusty summers. We recommend installing an automatic salt chlorination system and a high-quality cover. This reduces the need for chemical adjustments and prevents debris from the local vegetation and the Sierra winds from entering the water, making maintenance very manageable for part-time residents.
