7 Pool Construction FAQs

The 2 main types of swimming pools on the market are conventional swimming pools and prefabricated swimming pools. These 2 types have significant differences in terms of pool construction and the equipment used for each case. Conventional pools are concrete pools and need a comprehensive study by an engineer for their construction, unlike prefab pools.

u003ca href=u0022https://pisinahellas.gr/kataskeyi-pisinas/u0022u003econstruction of a conventional swimming pool u003c/au003e needs a series of bureaucratic procedures before starting the essential construction stage. You will get most of the papers from the Town Planning office closest to your area, while the entire project will be supervised by a qualified engineer. He will be responsible from the beginning to the end of the project.u003cbru003eThe construction of a prefabricated pool does not need a permit from the Town Planning in the event that the pool is of the appropriate dimensions (up to 50 square meters) and depth (up to 1.40 meters). You only need a responsible statement from the supervising engineer and a static adequacy study in the event that you want to build a prefabricated pool on a roof or a floor.

Skimmer and overflow methods are used to build a concrete pool. The construction can be made in various designs and dimensions and the basic stages are as follows:u003cbru003e 1) Marking and excavation of the groundu003cbru003e2) Placement of the basic material (concrete) at the base of the tanku003cbru003e3) Molding and placement of the irons depending on the type of static of a study done by an engineeru003cbru003e4) Installation of pipes, drainage, lighting and skimmer.u003cbru003e5) Extra placement of a layer of concreteu003cbru003e6) Sealing with the appropriate materials that are spreadable cements and smoothing cement mortar.

Building a pool with tiles lacking expansion jointsu003cbru003eWhen we talk about pool tiles we often refer to mosaics. These are most often used because of their size and u003ca href=u0022https://sofiabanagi.gr/life-coaching/u0022u003e their abilityu003c/au003e to follow the curves in the organic shapes of the pools. However, all mosaics are held together as sheets, and mesh underlayment is often used to do this.u003cbru003eu003cbru003ePool expansion joints are an important, often overlooked, component of an inground pool because they protect your pool from damage.

Of course, there are also cases where it is not at all advisable to proceed with the construction of a concrete pool. These cases are when you want the pool to be either for domestic use or when you have a small accommodation and use the pool for a small number of clients.
