Swimming Pools in Onda

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, the project coordinator for TuExterior. Over the years, I have seen how the inland climate of the La Plana Baixa comarca can be both a blessing and a challenge for homeowners. With a population of approximately 26,190 residents, this area experiences intense summer heat, making the decision to install a swimming pool in Onda one of the most rewarding investments you can make for your property. Whether you are settled in the established residential areas like Sitjar Baix and Sonella, or perhaps in the newer developments of Nueva Onda and Monteblanco, my mission is to transform your garden into a private oasis. In Onda a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the complexity of the terrain and the materials chosen. We understand that residents in areas like El Salvador value both quality and durability, which is why we focus on delivering structures that withstand the specific thermal fluctuations of our region while providing a refreshing escape for your family throughout the long Mediterranean summer season.

Regulations and Permits in Onda

Navigating the legal landscape for construction in the province of Castellón requires local expertise. In Onda, all outdoor installations must comply with the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU), which was established in 1998 and has been updated in accordance with the Texto Refundido de la Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje (TRLOTUP). When we install structures like pool enclosures or pergolas, we strictly follow the UNE-EN 13561 standard to ensure safety and quality.

For the swimming pool itself, the type of permit required depends on the scope of work. Most residential pools are classified as 'Obra Mayor' due to the structural excavation involved, requiring a technical project signed by an architect. However, smaller renovations or decorative surrounds might only require an 'Obra Menor' notification. It is crucial to note that specific restrictions apply if your property is located within the 'Pulmón Verde' area or the protected historic center (BIC - Bien de Interés Cultural), where aesthetic and environmental regulations are significantly more stringent to preserve the town's heritage and natural landscape.
