Do you want to realize your dream and build your inground pool?

 First of all you must check with your


town hall on the feasibility of your swimming pool project in relation to planning regulations.  It is then
necessary to apply for a building permit. You will find on this link the building  permit request form .

Step 1:  Design of the swimming pool project.

The technical success of your project depends above all on the study and design work. They make it
possible to determine: 
 the location:  in relation to buildings, regulations, its orientation.
 the dimensions of the pool  : length, width, depth.
 the shape:   standard rectangular / swimming lane / rounded "bean" shapes. type of staircase and
type of pool bottom (flat bottom / progressive slope / "diamond point" bottom).  
 the construction method:  polyester shell, kit panel pools, traditional masonry, masonry in sheet
concrete (depending on your budget and the type of soil).
 waterproofing:  liner type 75 / 100th, 150 / 100th or tiling.
 filtration and water treatment:  chlorine, bromine, salt.
 equipment:  heat pump / rolling shutter / lighting / robot cleaner / alarm sockets / etc.).
  
   Once all these elements have been determined, it becomes possible to calculate the cost of building
your swimming pool project. To help you better understand the construction of a swimming pool, here we
present a site follow-up detailing the construction of a swimming pool for a client in Bordeaux.  We have
more and more requests for construction of smaller pools than the traditional 10x5, 12x6 ... 

Example of swimming pool construction in Gironde: 


 Dimension:   7m x 3m depth 1.5m (water line).
 Shape:  rectangular / flat bottom / without stairs.
 Method of construction:  traditional masonry.
 Watertightness:  liner 75 / 100th sand color.
 Water treatment:  salt electrolysis.
 Equipment:  Heating (heat pump).
 Location  : Gironde
 Duration:  design / costing / filing and authorization of the building permit: 3 months.

              construction work: 3 months.

 Project cost:  € 15,995 incl.

Step 2:  Swimming pool earthworks and evacuation of land.
 Implementation of the site.
 Hedge uprooting & evacuation.
 Remove wooden terrace.
 Installation of the swimming pool with tracing on the ground and installation of a reference point of
the height envisaged compared to the ground.
 Pool hole opening / excavation / land evacuation.
"hedgehog" bed of gravel 20/40 on 15 cm thick
       Laying of the "hedgehog" bed of gravel 20/40 on 15 cm  thick.
Step 3:  Pool masonry. 

DEDICATE POOL:

 Definitive implantation of the future swimming pool according to construction plans.


Preparation:
 Laying of lost wooden shore formwork to delimit the raft.
 Installation of polyane film.
 Laying of 5 cm thick studs for installing welded mesh reinforcement.
 Installation of ST25 welded mesh and connection to the tornado on 3 welds. 
 Installation of brackets & stiffening posts + connection  (at each corner of the pool + every 2m
approximately).
Pouring the raft:  
     Raft poured in one go with concrete dosed with 350kg of cement 42.5R
     Thickness: 15cm on 8mx4m or about 5m3.
 Wall mounting & installation of the parts to be sealed:
 Location of the parts to be sealed:
    Water repellent coatings.
 Step 4:   Installation Filtration + water treatment + heat pump (PAC)
Step 5:  installing the pool liner and filling the pool with water.
