Frequently Asked
Does Delaware have a statewide residential building code?
No. New Castle, Kent and Sussex counties and incorporated towns adopt their own building codes, so pool drawings follow the IRC edition and barrier rules of the permitting county or municipality.
Do public pools in Delaware need state approval before construction?
Yes. Under 16 Del. Admin. Code 4464, plans and specifications go to the Division of Public Health, and an Approval to Construct must be issued before a public pool is built, altered or converted from private use.
Are your Delaware pool plans sealed by a Delaware-licensed engineer?
Yes. A Professional Engineer licensed in Delaware reviews the package, takes responsible charge and applies their seal. You receive a submission-ready set for your Delaware jurisdiction.
