How it works

Victorian pool and spa owners must keep a compliant safety barrier and lodge a certificate of compliance with their local council.

  1. Register with council

    Register the pool or spa with your local council if you have not already.

  2. Book an inspection

    A registered building inspector attends and checks the barrier against the applicable standard.

  3. We attend and report

    If the barrier complies, we issue a certificate. If not, you receive an owner notice of items to fix.

  4. Certificate or notice

    Lodge a certificate with council, or complete the works and book a re-inspection within the allowed time.

What clients say

Serafino provided clear instructions for what works were required. Jade was courteous and prompt. We are pleased to recommend Pool Compliance Victoria.

Laurie, Blackburn

Professional service and politeness was first class. Brendan was thorough, and Jade gave honest answers. I would have no hesitation asking them back in four years.

David, Chirnside Park

We thought it would be complex. Not at all — so simple. Luke explained exactly what we needed, and Jade arranged a speedy return visit for sign-off.
