Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking to install a swimming pool in Bigastro, you have come to the right place. Living here in the heart of the Vega Baja del Segura, we all know that the inland climate can be particularly intense during the summer months. With a population of approximately 7,361 residents, Bigastro offers a wonderful sense of community, but the heat trapped between the mountains and the citrus groves makes a private cooling spot essential. Whether you are settled in the established Villas Andrea, the modern Residencial Bigastro, or the developing plots in Sector D-3 and Sector D-6, my team and I specialize in transforming these outdoor spaces into Mediterranean oases. We understand the specific terrain of the area, ensuring that every installation is structurally sound and aesthetically integrated into the local landscape. Regarding investment, in Bigastro a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the dimensions, excavation complexity, and the specific finishes you choose for your home. My goal is to ensure that your project is handled with local expertise and transparent communication from day one.

Regulations and Permits in Bigastro

Navigating the legal landscape is a crucial part of any exterior project in the Alicante province. In Bigastro, the construction of a swimming pool is governed by the municipal PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana) and specific local ordinances. For most residential pools, you will need to apply for an 'Obra Mayor' licence at the Ayuntamiento de Bigastro, as it involves structural excavation and permanent modification of the land. This requires a technical project signed by an architect or engineer and the payment of the corresponding municipal taxes (ICIO).

Furthermore, if your project includes the installation of automated covers or pergolas to shade the pool area, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard. This European regulation ensures that all solar protection systems meet specific wind resistance and safety requirements. If you are located in an urbanisation like Residencial Bigastro, we also take into account any internal community rules regarding boundary distances and wall heights. Our team manages the technical documentation to ensure your pool is 100% legal, avoiding future fines or issues when you eventually decide to sell your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in Bigastro?
The cost generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This variation depends on whether you opt for a prefabricated polyester shell or a bespoke steel-reinforced concrete pool. Factors such as the ease of access for heavy machinery in areas like the narrow streets of the town centre versus the open plots of Sector D-3 also influence the final price. We provide a detailed quote that includes local labour and high-quality filtration systems.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, you absolutely need a municipal licence from the Bigastro Town Hall. Because a swimming pool involves significant excavation and structural work, it is classified as an 'Obra Mayor'. You will need a technical project drafted by a qualified professional. We assist our clients in coordinating with local architects to ensure the paperwork meets the requirements of the municipal PGOU.
How long does it take?
A standard installation typically takes between 3 to 5 weeks once the permits are granted. Prefabricated pools are faster, often completed in under 15 days, while reinforced concrete pools require more time for the structure to cure properly. We always aim to complete the work before the peak of the Vega Baja summer heat so you can enjoy the water immediately.
Do you cover Bigastro?
Yes, Bigastro is one of our primary service areas. We regularly work in Villas Andrea, Residencial Bigastro, and the various sectors surrounding the town. Being local to the Vega Baja del Segura allows us to transport materials efficiently and provide rapid after-sales support should you need maintenance or equipment checks in the future.
What warranty do you provide?
We offer a comprehensive warranty that covers the watertightness of the pool shell for up to 10 years, depending on the material chosen. The filtration pumps, salt chlorinators, and LED lighting systems typically carry a 2 to 3-year manufacturer’s warranty. We only use reputable brands to ensure that your investment is protected against the high temperatures and limescale common in the local water supply.
Can you install salt water systems?
Absolutely. In fact, we highly recommend salt chlorination for Bigastro residents. The inland heat can make chlorine levels fluctuate rapidly in traditional pools. Salt systems provide a more stable, skin-friendly experience and are much easier to maintain during the long, hot summers of the Alicante province.
Is my plot suitable for a pool?
Most plots in Bigastro are suitable, but we must check for underground utilities and the stability of the soil. In some parts of the Vega Baja, the clay-heavy soil requires specific reinforcement to prevent the pool from shifting. During our initial site visit, we assess these geological factors to recommend the best construction method for your specific garden.
