SWIMSAFE Pool Fence Inspections Bellarine Peninsula Bell Street, Barwon Heads, Victoria 3227

Welcome to SWIMSAFE Pool Fence Inspections Bellarine Peninsula, your trusted establishment and general contractor for all your pool fence inspection needs. Located in Barwon Heads on Bell Street, we are a point of interest in the area, dedicated to ensuring the safety and compliance of your backyard swimming pool or spa.

In accordance with Victorian pool fence regulations, it is required that every pool and spa be examined by an approved inspector every four years. As pool owners, it is essential to register your pool or spa with your local council and submit a certificate to demonstrate that your barrier is compliant. That's where SWIMSAFE comes in.

At SWIMSAFE, we provide certified Pool Barrier Inspections and Pool Fence Inspections to help you navigate this new process with ease and efficiency. Our services are designed to buy you time to bring your safety barrier into full compliance. If you're unsure if your pool barrier will pass an inspection and need extra time to arrange repairs, we offer a comprehensive on-site analysis. This includes a detailed report with pictures and rectification advice on all items of barrier compliance.

If your barrier is secure and you're ready for the inspection, we offer the best option to receive your official certificate for council (Form 23). However, if your barrier is found to be non-compliant, our detailed report with pictures will explain how to rectify the non-compliant items. We provide practical examples on how to make your barrier compliant, and a re-inspection will be required after all items are rectified.

For those who have had a previous consultation or inspection with us and have rectified all the items listed in the report, we offer a follow-up inspection to obtain your official council compliance certificate. You will be given 60 days to bring your barrier up to compliance after the date of inspection.

It is important to note that all permanent or relocatable swimming pools and spas capable of holding a depth of water greater than 300mm must be inspected by an approved inspector every four years. Owners must register their pool or spa with their local council and submit a certificate to show their barrier is compliant.

Understanding the rules and standards relating to each pool or spa can be complicated, as they depend on factors such as the construction date, amendments made to the pool barrier, and the local government authority that applies to the owner. However, with SWIMSAFE Pool Fence Inspectors, you can count on our expertise to help get your pool barrier compliant.

To help you prepare for your inspection, we have included self-assessment checklists on our website. But if it all seems overwhelming, don't worry – that's what we're here for. Our team is ready to assist you every step of the way.

In Victoria, it is mandatory for all landowners to register any pool or spa on their property. This is crucial for the safety of not only residents but also visitors. Out of the 27 drownings that have occurred in Victoria since 2000, 12 involved children who were not residents of the property. One tragic case involved a child entering the pool area without the knowledge of the property owner. By complying with the relevant standards, we can prevent such accidents and protect lives.

If your pool or spa barrier does not comply with the relevant Standard, we will provide you with a detailed report outlining what needs to be done to make the barrier compliant. You will then have up to 60 days to complete the necessary work and have the pool re-inspected. In the event that the barrier remains non-compliant, we are obligated to notify the relevant local Council.

If you're having trouble finding professionals to help you with repairs or modifications, we have a network of builders, pool and boundary fence constructors, and other specialist trades that we can recommend. These recommendations are independent from us, and we have no commercial arrangement with them. However, we have found them to be very helpful to many of our pool owners.

We proudly serve Greater Melbourne and the Bellarine Peninsula, ensuring the safety and compliance of pools and spas in the area. Trust SWIMSAFE Pool Fence Inspections Bellarine Peninsula for all your pool fence inspection needs. Contact us today to schedule an inspection or for any inquiries.
