Outcomes

Pass or fail, you know where you stand

If your pool passes

Your certificate is issued and lodged with the QBCC register in QLD, the NSW Swimming Pool Register, or your council in VIC. You receive a copy for your records and your agent or conveyancer can be copied in.

If it does not pass

A certificate cannot be issued until the pool complies. You get an itemised rectification report, and in QLD a Form 26 Non-Conformity Notice where applicable, with clear timeframes and a $190 re-inspection once items are fixed.

Pricing

What it costs

Fixed prices, confirmed before we book. No hidden call-out fees.

Inspection & certificate

$350. Full compliance assessment, digital inspection report, and the certificate issued and lodged where the pool is compliant.

Re-inspection

$190. Re-check of the specific items listed on your non-compliance report once they are fixed, not a second full inspection fee.

Rectification and barrier repair work is quoted separately. Travel surcharges may apply for regional and rural bookings outside standard routes, confirmed at time of quote.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

How long is a certificate valid?

It varies by state and pool type. QLD certificates run one year for shared pools and two years for non-shared pools. NSW and VIC operate on their own cycles. We track your expiry and contact you before renewal.

Can I sell without a certificate?

Rules differ by state, and in some cases you can transfer the obligation to the buyer, but most sales and leases require a valid certificate. Call us and we will confirm what applies to your contract.

Who lodges the certificate?

We do. It goes to the relevant register or council directly, so there is no paperwork left for you to chase.

What if I only have a spa?

Spas and swim spas generally need the same barrier compliance as pools. The same certificate process applies.
