Each year, we at River Pools install many inground pools in the Montgomery Co. area of Maryland, in such towns as Gaithersburg, Silver Spring, Potomac, Laytonsville, and Rockville. And because each county in Md. is different in terms of what they require for pool permits, here is a breakdown:
Montgomery County - Maryland Pools Setbacks: depends on location
Setbacks for well & septic: 20’
To apply for a permit you will need 3 original copies of the pool plans, 3 copies of plat, and building permit application signed by homeowner.
Note**If you try to call and speak to someone at the county you will be given a service ticket number and they will call you back within 24-48 hours but may take up to a week. From our experience, you don’t get to speak directly to someone in the building department.
River Pools® manufactures fiberglass pool shells and does not install pools. Pools are installed by locally owned and operated dealers and franchisees. The relationship between the dealers and franchisees to River Pools® is that of an independent contractor. River Pools Franchising LLC (Franchising) provides independently owned and operated River Pool franchisees with the right to market the River Pools brand of pool shells as a franchisee. Franchising does not manufacture pool shells. Due to the unprecedented and historic growth of the River Pools brand, this website contains an abundance of information that has been created over the last decade. Some of the content on this site may reflect prices, perspectives, processes, entities, and names that were relevant at the time but may not be as relevant today.
Consumers should consult their local installer (independent dealer or franchisee) for the most accurate and updated information based on the unique conditions of their property. Consumers should verify specifications with the installing dealer rather than relying on the information on this website, which is not intended to be a final specification.
