I am Álvaro Ferrer, the project coordinator at TuExterior, and I have spent the last decade helping homeowners across the province transform their outdoor spaces into private oases. If you are considering installing a swimming pool in Tous, you have likely discovered that our inland location in the La Ribera Alta comarca requires a specific approach to construction and climate management. With a local population of approximately 1,357 residents, Tous offers a tranquil lifestyle, but its Mediterranean-inland climate means summers are significantly hotter than the coast. Whether your property is nestled in the established streets of La Parra, the rustic plots of El Campillo, or near the scenic vistas of El Pantano, we understand the unique soil composition of this area. Building here requires expertise in both terrain stability and local aesthetics. Regarding investment, in Tous a swimming pool typically runs 8000-25000 € including local labour, depending on the dimensions and chosen finishes. My goal is to ensure your project integrates perfectly with the rugged beauty of the Valencian interior while providing a durable retreat for your family.

Step 4: Professional installation

Our specialized crew executes the build, managing the technical requirements of the LOTUP regulations to ensure your pool is both beautiful and fully legal.

Local Regulations and Technical Standards

Navigating the legal landscape for swimming pool construction in Tous requires a deep understanding of both regional and municipal frameworks. All our installations strictly adhere to the UNE-EN 13561 standard for outdoor structures and safety, ensuring that every component meets European quality benchmarks. In Tous, the process is governed by the Plan General de Ordenación Urbana (PGOU) and the regional LOTUP (Ley de Ordenación del Territorio, Urbanismo y Paisaje).

Because Tous is situated in a sensitive environmental zone, building permits are strictly governed by the PGOU and LOTUP, with specific protections for the reservoir's hydrological basin and surrounding forest land. For most residential pools, we must process an "Obra Mayor" license rather than a simple "Obra Menor," especially if the project involves structural excavation or changes to the property's footprint. We also pay close attention to the Confederación Hidrográfica del Júcar (CHJ) regulations if your property is within the protection perimeter of the reservoir. Our team handles the technical project submission to the Ayuntamiento de Tous, ensuring that setbacks from boundaries and water discharge protocols are fully compliant with local environmental mandates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does swimming pool cost in Tous?
The investment for a standard reinforced concrete or high-quality prefabricated pool in this area generally ranges between 8,000 € and 25,000 €. This price includes local labour, excavation in the typically rocky soil of La Ribera Alta, and the complete filtration system. Factors such as difficult access in the old town or the need for reinforced retaining walls in sloped areas like El Pantano can influence the final budget.
Do I need a licence for a swimming pool in Tous?
Yes, a municipal building permit is mandatory. Depending on the size and location of your plot, the Town Hall (Ayuntamiento) will require a technical project signed by an architect or engineer. Because Tous has specific protections due to the nearby reservoir and forest zones, it is vital to ensure the project complies with the PGOU to avoid heavy fines or demolition orders.
How long does it take to complete the installation?
A standard pool installation usually takes between 3 to 5 weeks once the permits are granted. The excavation phase in Tous can sometimes take an extra few days if we encounter the hard limestone common in this part of Valencia/Valencia border. We provide a realistic timeline during the quoting phase so you can plan your summer accordingly.
Do you cover all areas of Tous?
Absolutely. We provide services to the entire municipality, including the main village centre and the outlying urbanisations and rustic areas such as La Parra, El Campillo, and La Garrofera. We are equipped with the necessary machinery to reach more remote properties near the reservoir, provided there is basic truck access.
What warranty do you provide for the construction?
We offer a 10-year structural warranty on the pool shell against leaks or cracks, and a standard 2-year warranty on all filtration equipment and pumps. As a local coordinator, I ensure that all materials used are resistant to the thermal expansion caused by the intense inland summer sun and the colder winter nights typical of the Tous climate.
Can you install heating systems for the winter months?
Yes, many residents in La Ribera Alta opt for heat pumps or solar covers to extend the swimming season. Given that Tous experiences cooler temperatures than the coastal towns from October onwards, a high-efficiency heat pump combined with a thermal blanket is an excellent investment to enjoy your pool for six to eight months a year.
Is it possible to build on a sloped plot near El Pantano?
Building on sloped terrain is one of our specialties. In areas overlooking the reservoir, we often design "infinity" edges or use reinforced concrete walls to create a level terrace. While this requires a more complex engineering project under the LOTUP guidelines, the result is a spectacular pool that maximizes the unique views of the Tous landscape.
