Spa & Pool Inspections Melbourne

At Pool Safe Inspections Victoria, we help you meet Victoria’s strict pool safety laws with hassle-free compliance checks. As a Registered Building Inspector with the Victorian Building Authority (VBA), we ensure your pool and barrier meet mandatory inspection requirements, giving you peace of mind and a compliance certificate on the day if your pool passes.

Why Choose Us?
✅ Expert inspections for all Victorian swimming pools & spas
✅ Same-day certification if your pool barrier is compliant
✅ Clear guidance on bringing non-compliant pools up to standard
✅ Trusted by homeowners, real estate agencies & landlords

Victorian laws require permanent pool fencing to ensure restricted access 24/7—not just at certain times of the day. While pool safety laws vary across Australia, Victoria’s pool regulations follow the same core safety principles to protect families in Melbourne and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my fence boundary as part of the barrier?

Yes you can. The new requirements set the boundary barrier at 1.8 meters.

Can I use an above ground pool as part of my barrier?

Yes under AS 1926.1-2012 you can. You must have a Building Surveyor assess an application and issue a building permit

Do I need a building permit for a swimming pool barrier

Yes you need a building permit issued and a Building Inspector passes it.

Does my spa lid form part of the barrier?

No it doesn’t. You need an independent barrier and have it inspected.

Are all powder coated pool fence panels compliant?

Unfortunately not all powder coat fences are not build with the same high quality standards. You can perform a simple test by squeezing two vertical members together to see how rigid your fence panels are. If you can open gaps either side by more than 100mm, they may not meet minimum manufacturing standards
