Swimming Pools in Torrox Costa

Hello, I am Álvaro Ferrer, project coordinator at TuExterior. Living and working in the Axarquía region, specifically in the Costa del Sol Oriental, has taught me that building a swimming pool in Torrox Costa requires a deep understanding of our unique coastal environment. With a local population of around 12,000 residents, many of whom are expats living in beautiful urbanisations like Laguna Beach, Torrox Park, or the growing El Morche area, the demand for high-quality outdoor spaces is constant. Whether you own a villa in Peñoncillo with stunning sea views or a property near the Amberes area, you know that our proximity to the Mediterranean means dealing with significant salt exposure and humidity. This is why we specialise in materials that resist corrosion and intense sun. In Torrox Costa a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the complexity of the terrain and the finishes chosen. My goal is to ensure your investment adds value to your home while providing a refreshing sanctuary during our long, warm summers.

Regulations and Permits in Torrox Costa

Navigating the legal landscape for outdoor installations in the Málaga province is essential to avoid fines or demolition orders. For any swimming pool project in Torrox Costa, we must adhere to the local PGOU (Plan General de Ordenación Urbana) and specific municipal ordinances. Generally, a swimming pool is classified under "obra mayor" (major works) because it affects the structural integrity of the land and requires a technical project signed by an architect. However, smaller renovations or aesthetic upgrades might only require an "obra menor" (minor works) permit.

Because Torrox Costa is a coastal municipality, we are strictly subject to the Andalusian LISTA law (Ley de Impulso para la Sostenibilidad del Territorio de Andalucía), which regulates land use. Furthermore, if your property is located near the shoreline, such as in the lower parts of El Morche or Laguna Beach, we must respect the "Costas" protection zone setbacks. This national law dictates how close to the sea one can build. Additionally, for any shading structures or pool enclosures, we ensure compliance with the UNE-EN 13561 standard, which regulates the wind resistance and safety of solar protection systems. We handle the communication with the Torrox Ayuntamiento to ensure every document is in order before the first shovel hits the ground.
