Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking to install a high-quality swimming pool in La Nucía, you have come to the right place. Living here in the Marina Baixa comarca, we enjoy a unique inland climate that is slightly different from the coastal humidity of Benidorm, making a private pool not just a luxury, but a central part of Mediterranean life. With a population of approximately 18,783 residents, many of whom live in beautiful urbanisations like Barranco Hondo, Coloma, Bello Horizonte, El Tosal, or Panorama, we understand the specific terrain and soil conditions of this area. Whether you have a villa overlooking the mountains or a garden plot near the sports centre, our team ensures your project integrates perfectly with your surroundings. Regarding investment, in La Nucía a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the dimensions and chosen finishes. My goal is to guide you through the technical choices to ensure your outdoor space becomes your favourite part of the home.

Reach out to us via our web form or phone to discuss your vision, preferred style, and specific location within La Nucía.

We provide a detailed, transparent proposal including all materials, labour, and estimated timelines with no hidden costs or surprises.

Step 4: Installation & Handover

Our specialized crew carries out the excavation and construction, finishing with a thorough cleaning and a tutorial on how to maintain your new pool.

Regulations and Permits in La Nucía

Navigating the legal requirements for a swimming pool in La Nucía is essential to avoid fines and ensure the structural integrity of your project. The primary regulatory framework is governed by the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) of La Nucía, which dictates setbacks from property boundaries and maximum occupation percentages for your plot.

For most standard residential pools, you will need to apply for an 'Obra Mayor' licence at the Town Hall (Ayuntamiento), which requires a technical project signed by an architect. This is because the excavation and structural work significantly alter the land. If you are only renovating an existing pool or adding a cover, it might fall under an 'Obra Menor' permit, which is faster to process. Additionally, for any sunshades or pergolas installed alongside the pool, we strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard, ensuring wind resistance and safety. We handle the technical documentation required by the local authorities to ensure your project is 100% legal before the first shovel hits the ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in La Nucía?
The cost generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This variation depends on the size of the basin, the type of filtration system (chlorine vs. salt water), and the complexity of the terrain. In rocky areas near the mountains, excavation might be slightly more intensive, which is reflected in the final quote.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, the La Nucía Town Hall requires a municipal licence for any new pool construction. This ensures the project complies with the PGOU (General Urban Plan) regarding safety and distance from neighbouring walls. We assist in preparing the necessary paperwork to make the administrative process as smooth as possible for you.
How long does it take?
A standard reinforced concrete or prefabricated pool usually takes between 3 to 6 weeks to complete once the permits are granted. This timeframe includes the excavation, plumbing, tiling, and the curing of the structure. Weather in the Marina Baixa is usually favourable, but we always account for potential seasonal rains.
Do you cover La Nucía?
Absolutely. We operate across the entire municipality, including the town centre and all major urbanisations such as Barranco Hondo, El Tosal, and Bello Horizonte. Being local allows us to transport materials efficiently and provide quick after-sales support whenever you need it.
What warranty do you provide?
We offer a comprehensive 10-year structural warranty on the pool shell against leaks or cracks. Additionally, all filtration equipment and pumps come with the standard manufacturer's warranty, usually lasting 2 to 3 years, ensuring your peace of mind for many summers to come.
Can I install a salt water system?
Yes, salt water chlorination is highly recommended for the climate in La Nucía. It is gentler on the skin and eyes compared to traditional chlorine and requires less manual chemical handling. We can integrate this system into any new build or retro-fit it to your existing pool.
Is it possible to build on a sloped plot?
Many properties in La Nucía, especially in areas like Panorama, are situated on hillsides. We specialize in "vanishing edge" or infinity pools and reinforced retaining walls that turn a challenging slope into a stunning architectural feature with incredible views of the valley.
