PERMITS

Do You Need a Permit for a Pool in Belmont?

Yes. Central Elgin requires a swimming pool permit, issued by its Building Division. The application needs a lot grading plan unless the Municipality exempts your lot, and a deck, shed or pergola around the pool needs its own permit.

We handle the permit paperwork for you as part of every installation.

If your yard is near a creek, a valley or a wetland, the local conservation authority may need to issue a permit as well. Central Elgin wants that approval in hand before it issues the pool permit.

POOL FENCES

Pool Fence Rules in Belmont

✓The fence must be at least 1.2 m (4 ft) high at every point, measured from the outside.
✓Gaps can be no wider than 10 cm (4 in), and chain-link openings no wider than 3.8 cm (1.5 in).
✓Gates must close and latch on their own, with the latch at the top of the gate on the pool side.
✓The fence can't be climbable like a ladder, so posts and boards go on the pool side.
✓No water goes in the pool until the permanent fence has been inspected and approved.
✓In Belmont, zoning keeps the pool out of the front yard and at least 1.25 m from the side and rear lot lines.

COST

What Does a Fiberglass Pool Cost in Belmont?

Most of our fiberglass pool projects fall between $82,500 and $143,000, fully installed. That covers the pool, excavation, backfill, basic equipment and a standard concrete patio.

Where you land in that range depends on the pool size, the patio, equipment upgrades and your yard. The Instant Estimator gives you a range for your own project, and you get an exact price once we've seen your yard.

Is a Fiberglass Pool Right for Every Yard?

Not always. Fiberglass pools are built in a factory and shipped by truck, so they top out at about 16 feet wide and about 8 feet deep, and a crane needs a clear path to set the pool in your yard. If you want a bigger pool or a custom shape, concrete is the better choice.
