The physical works that bring a pool barrier up to the NSW standard — fence and gate height, gaps, self-closing hinges and latches, non-climbable zone. We get it ready to pass inspection; the certificate comes from a certifier.
A pool that isn't compliant can't be sold or leased in NSW, and the gap between 'looks fine' and 'passes inspection' is usually a handful of specific, fixable things: a barrier under 1.2 metres, a gap over 100mm at the bottom, a gate that doesn't self-close or self-latch at the right height, or a climbable object sitting too close to the fence.
We do the physical works that bring a pool barrier up to the current NSW standard so it's ready to pass an inspection — replacing or raising fencing and gates, closing gaps, fixing or replacing self-closing hinges and self-latching hardware, clearing the 900mm non-climbable zone, and putting up a compliant CPR sign. To be clear: we're not certifiers and we can't issue the Certificate of Compliance — that comes from your council or a private certifier registered with NSW Fair Trading. What we do is the hands-on rectification so the barrier is ready for them, working straight from a failed inspection report if you have one, with photos as each item is done.
No — and it's worth being wary of anyone who says they can as a handyman. The Certificate of Compliance is issued by your local council or a private certifier registered with NSW Fair Trading. What we do is the physical rectification — fencing, gates, hinges, latches, gaps and signage — that gets the barrier up to standard so it passes their inspection.
In NSW, yes. A valid pool safety compliance certificate is required to lease a property with a pool, and to sell it (or you attach a certificate of non-compliance that passes the obligation to the buyer). It's worth sorting before you list — a non-compliant barrier can hold up a settlement or a new lease.
Barrier height under 1.2 metres, gaps over 100mm at the base, gates that don't self-close or self-latch, latches mounted too low, and climbable objects — pots, furniture, trees, the pump housing — sitting inside the 900mm non-climbable zone. Most are quick to fix once they're identified.
Public liability insured and ABN registered (72 995 846 975). Certificates available on request. Where a job requires a licensed trade — electrical, plumbing, gas or structural — we identify it up front and refer it rather than attempting it ourselves.
Here's the part people stick around for — you always know what's happening, what it costs, and what got done.
We look at the job and send back a quote with a price against each thing — so nothing on the invoice is a surprise, and there's nothing awkward to explain to an owner later.
Before and after shots land in your inbox on completion. Forward them straight to the owner — you won't have to chase us for an update.
Repair request, condition report, defect list — whatever you've already got. We work through it and report back the same way, so you're not re-typing anything.
A few trades' worth of small jobs, handled as one. One number to call — and someone actually answers it.
Send us a defect list, a condition report, or just the properties you can't get covered. We'll come back with an itemised quote within a day.
