Whenever we imagine a pool at home, it is large and occupying an endless garden. But this is not always the case, in fact, today's houses are smaller, but they have specific corners where they can have swimming pools for small patios. It is possible and of different shapes and materials. Let's see how they are and how to build them.

If you have the illusion of installing your pool in a small space, it is possible. They have a small footprint, but they are suitable for any place, whether built or mobile. This is a definite advantage as you will get through the summer heat well and the best thing is that they offer low maintenance.
How to build swimming pools in small gardens
First we must make sure if it is possible to build a pool in this place, even if it is small. The ideal is to ask the builder and architect who will clear up your doubts.
Given a small square patio, one option is to stick the pool on one of the walls so that it forms part of the pool structure. In addition to looking good, it also offers a nice design aspect, with this solution we manage to have space on one side, we can even integrate a decorative and relaxing waterfall.
In the curved plots, its construction is framed by the walls. Building pools in small spaces allows you to build them your way, you just need to completely adapt the terrace where you want to build them.
If it is a small patio with an irregular shape, it is better not to build a rectangular pool, otherwise there will be many dead spaces and areas that will not be used.
Type of pools for small spaces:
with rigid covers
When there is a small garden and we also want a section with a pool, there may not be enough space to have plants or simply to rest.
One option is to choose a pool with a rigid cover. They allow the pool to be used during the day or in summer, and at night and already in autumn (when the use of the pool begins to decrease), we can always cover it and place a relaxation area.
spa type
We can buy it now to disassemble or to do work. In this case, there are 2.5 x 3 m pools-spas, although they are not suitable for swimming, but where we can cool off, move around and even exercise. Remember that you can also leave space for the pump you use.
fiberglass or wood
There are different types of small pools. The fiberglass and wooden ones are perfect for small patios and gardens, and even smaller terraces, whenever it is possible to have a pool there.
One of the most special is the above-ground pools that are covered with wood and have a good height above the patio or garden that we have.
In inner courtyards
Although it may be more complicated, there are also homes that choose to have an indoor pool. It is possible to have it as long as they are not big and that everything is arranged so that it is so. In this case, we can have it all year round, and it is a great advantage to be able to enjoy it in winter as well.
Tips
- Good location: Although it is a small place, you have to try to put the pool in a good place. For this reason, you avoid those places with more shade or humidity so that they get the sun.
- Non-slip materials: The different materials that surround the pool are very important. We must make sure that it is a non-slip material because we will go through it several times and it is better not to slip and fall into the pool.
- Custom: Since there are many sizes, whether built or prefabricated, the ideal is that it be made to measure for each space, especially since we are talking about small spaces that need to be used.
- The ground: It must be remembered that the ground must be prepared for its installation.
- Facilities: It is also important that there is a facility near the pool with a water intake point when it is necessary to fill, empty and clean the pool.
