Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. Living and working in the Marina Alta, I have spent years helping international residents transform their outdoor spaces into Mediterranean retreats. If you are looking to build or renovate a swimming pool in Pego, you have come to the right place. This beautiful town, with a population of approximately 10,670 people, offers a unique inland climate that is significantly warmer than the immediate coast, making a private pool almost essential for enjoying the summer months. Whether your property is nestled in the hills of Monte Pego with its stunning marshland views, located in the quiet streets of the Arboleda urbanisation, or situated near the scenic Bella Vista area, we understand the specific terrain and logistics of this region. Our team is dedicated to providing high-quality craftsmanship that withstands the local heat. Regarding investment, in Pego a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the size, materials, and technical complexity of the plot.

How we work

  2. Site Visit & Measuring: I will personally visit your home in Pego to assess the ground conditions, take precise measurements, and check access for machinery.
  3. Free Quote: We provide a detailed, transparent breakdown of costs, including materials and estimated timelines, with no hidden surprises or obligations.
  4. Professional Installation: Our expert crew handles the construction or installation from start to finish, ensuring everything meets our strict quality standards and your total satisfaction.

Local Regulations and Permit Requirements in Pego

Navigating the legal landscape is a crucial part of any outdoor project in the Marina Alta. In Pego, all construction is governed by the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU), which dictates where a pool can be placed in relation to property boundaries and the percentage of the plot that can be occupied. For most standard swimming pool projects, you will need to apply for an "Obra Mayor" licence at the Pego Town Hall (Ayuntamiento), which requires a technical project signed by an architect. However, for smaller renovations or the installation of retractable covers and awnings, we ensure compliance with the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the safety and performance requirements for external blinds and shutters. If you are simply replacing tiles or "re-grouting," this may fall under an "Obra Menor" (minor works) permit, which is faster and cheaper to obtain. We assist our clients in understanding these administrative steps to ensure your pool is 100% legal and avoids any future fines or issues during a property sale.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in Pego?
The cost generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This variation depends on whether you choose a prefabricated polyester shell or a bespoke "obra" (reinforced concrete) pool. Factors such as the slope of your land in areas like Monte Pego and the choice of filtration systems or salt electrolysis also influence the final price.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, for a new pool construction in Pego, a municipal building permit is mandatory. This involves submitting a project to the Town Hall and paying the corresponding construction tax (ICIO). For decorative renovations or equipment updates, a minor works notification is usually sufficient. We can guide you through the specific requirements for your address.
How long does it take?
A standard concrete pool project typically takes between 4 to 8 weeks from the moment the excavation begins. However, the administrative phase of obtaining the licence from the Pego Ayuntamiento can take several months, so we always recommend planning your project well in advance of the summer season.
Do you cover Pego?
Absolutely. We are based locally and serve the entire Pego municipality, including the town centre, the surrounding rustic land, and all major urbanisations such as Monte Pego, Bella Vista, and Arboleda. Being local allows us to respond quickly to site visits and provide ongoing maintenance support.
What warranty do you provide?
We offer a comprehensive warranty that covers the structural integrity of the pool shell for up to 10 years. For equipment like pumps, filters, and heat pumps, we provide the standard manufacturer's warranty, usually 2 to 3 years, and we personally guarantee our labour and installation quality.
Can you install heating for year-round use?
Yes, given the inland climate of Pego, many residents choose to install air-source heat pumps. When combined with a thermal cover, this allows you to extend the swimming season from early spring through to late autumn, making the most of your investment despite the cooler winter nights.
Is it possible to build on a steep slope?
Many properties in Pego, particularly in the mountain urbanisations, are built on significant inclines. We specialise in "infinity" or vanishing edge designs that use the slope to create stunning visual effects. This requires specific engineering and reinforced retaining walls, which we handle as part of the structural project.
