This service ensures swimming pools, spas, and surrounding safety barriers comply with Victorian safety laws. Under state legislation, pool and spa owners must register their facilities with the local council and obtain a compliance certificate for their safety barriers at regular intervals to avoid significant penalties. A registered building practitioner conducts a thorough assessment of the pool fence, gates, and surrounding areas against the specific Australian Standards applicable to the installation date. If the barrier is compliant, a Form 23 Certificate of Pool and Spa Barrier Compliance is issued. If non-compliance is found, a Form 24 is issued along with a reinspection notice detailing the required rectifications. The inspection ensures all gates self-close and latch correctly, and that barrier heights and non-climbable zones meet safety regulations. Once compliance is achieved, the certificate is provided to the owner for submission to the local council.
