Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. If you are looking to install a swimming pool in Senija, you have come to the right place to turn your outdoor space into a private oasis. Nestled in the heart of the Marina Alta comarca, Senija is a charming village of approximately 696 residents that offers a unique Mediterranean lifestyle. Unlike the coastal humidity of nearby towns, our inland climate here is characterized by hot, dry summers and crisp winters, making a private pool not just a luxury, but a necessity for comfort. Whether your property is located in the peaceful urbanisations of La Cometa and La Costa, or you own a rustic plot in areas like Romput, El Planet, or Les Sorts, we understand the specific geological and logistical needs of this terrain. At TuExterior, we specialize in adapting designs to the sloping plots common in this part of Alicante. To give you a starting point, in Senija a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the dimensions, materials, and technical complexity of the site.

Step 4: Installation and handover

Our specialist teams carry out the construction with minimal disruption, concluding with a full briefing on how to maintain your new pool perfectly.

Regulations and Permits in Senija

Navigating the legal landscape for a swimming pool in Senija requires adherence to both national safety standards and local municipal bylaws. All our installations, including any integrated sun shades or pergolas, strictly follow the UNE-EN 13561 standard to ensure structural integrity and wind resistance. Regarding the construction itself, the Senija Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) governs these projects through the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU).

In most cases, if you are building a standard sunken pool, you will need to apply for an 'Obra Mayor' (Major Works) licence. This requires a technical project signed by an architect and approved by the local college of architects. For smaller renovations, such as replacing a pool liner or fixing a terrace, an 'Obra Menor' (Minor Works) permit is usually sufficient. It is crucial to respect the 'retranqueos' or setback distances from your neighbours' boundaries, which are strictly enforced in the Marina Alta region. At TuExterior, we handle the technical documentation to ensure your pool is 100% legal, avoiding future fines or issues when selling your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in Senija?
The cost generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This variation depends on whether you choose a prefabricated glass fibre pool, a traditional reinforced concrete (gunite) structure, or a modern steel-panel system. Factors such as the difficulty of excavating the rocky terrain in Senija and the quality of the finishing tiles (gresite) also influence the final price.
Do I need a licence?
Yes, all swimming pool constructions in Senija require a municipal licence. For a new build, you must present a technical project to the Town Hall. We manage this process for our clients to ensure the project complies with the local PGOU regulations regarding land use and water safety.
How long does it take?
A standard pool project usually takes between 4 to 8 weeks from the moment the physical work begins. However, the administrative phase for obtaining the 'Obra Mayor' licence in the Marina Alta can take several weeks or even months depending on the Town Hall's current workload, so we recommend planning well in advance of the summer season.
Do you cover Senija?
Absolutely. We are highly active throughout the Marina Alta and specifically in Senija. We are familiar with the access routes to the more rural parts of the municipality, such as El Planet and Les Sorts, ensuring that our machinery and materials arrive safely and efficiently at 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, all filtration equipment and pumps come with their respective manufacturer warranties, and our installation work is guaranteed against defects to give you total peace of mind in your investment.
Can you install salt-water systems in Senija?
Yes, salt-water chlorination is our most requested filtration method in the area. It is much gentler on the skin and eyes compared to traditional chlorine, and it is perfectly suited for the local climate. It also reduces the need for chemical storage and manual handling, making maintenance much easier for part-time residents.
What happens if my plot has a steep slope?
Many properties in the outskirts of Senija, particularly in La Costa, are built on sloping land. We specialize in 'infinity' edges or reinforced retaining walls that allow us to build stable, beautiful pools on hillsides that would otherwise be unusable. We conduct a geological assessment to ensure the foundation is secure.
