❓ Frequently Asked
Typically 10–20 weeks total. Permits take 4–8 weeks; construction 6–10 weeks. Start before summer if you want the pool ready for the next season.
New construction: 23% IVA. Renovation on a residential property can qualify for 6% IVA — a significant saving. Our team helps you structure the project to legally access the lower rate.
Yes. Most Algarve municipalities require a licença de construção. Requirements vary by area. Our team handles the permit process for Albufeira, Lagos, Lagoa, Loulé, Silves, and others.
€600–€1,500 depending on site conditions: access, rock, slope, and soil type. Rocky Algarve terrain increases excavation cost. Our team surveys the site and gives a fixed excavation quote before any work starts.
Liner installation requires thorough surface prep — cleaning, smoothing, waterproofing. This adds €23/m² to liner renovation projects. It's essential for adhesion and liner longevity. All included in our fixed quotes.
