As of 29th April 2016, if you’re selling or leasing a property that has a swimming pool, then you’ll need your pool barrier inspected by an Accredited Certifier. With a solid understanding of Aussie homes and pools, we can give you the right advice tailored to your needs to help you reach compliance.
Therefore, from 29 April 2016, when a property with a swimming pool is being sold, a valid swimming pool certificate of compliance (or an occupation certificate issued within the last three years) or a certificate of non-compliance must be attached to the Contract for the Sale of Land.
Failure to attach the certificate means that the purchaser may be entitled to rescind the Contract at any time within 14 days of exchange, unless settlement has already occurred.
Pool safety inspection & certificate: $450
*Re-inspection, if required: $350
Please note that some pool fences fail the first inspection and require alterations to comply. Please review the appropriate barrier checklist on our resources page to get a better understanding of how your pool fence will perform during an inspection.
John is simply outstanding. He was incredibly professional and responsive from first phone interactions all the way through to in-person assessment. As for his skill, he proved to be perfectly thorough and a true expert in the field. I know that having compared his work directly with others who I now realise are far from his calibre. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again and definitely recommend him to others.

I engaged John to draft an Expert Witness Report outlining defects in a kitchen renovation in Centennial Park, to help me prepare a case against a builder - Create Holdings t/a Eastern Suburbs Home Improvements - for NCAT. I've just been successfully awarded two thirds of the total sum paid to the builder and I'm overjoyed. John was a pleasure to deal with and I've no doubt his Report was integral in the success of my case. Thank you John!!!
