Inspection Services
As VBA Registered Building Inspectors we offer the following Pool & Spa Safety Barrier services to Melbourne & surrounding regions:
We highly recommend that you refer to the Checklists provided on this site; to enable you to be as prepared as possible for your forthcoming inspections.
-
Comprehensive Barrier Inspections
Comprising of a site survey, dimension checks and initial data compilation; these inspections should take approximately 1 hour on site:
A full Technical Inspection of Safety Barriers, to assess their compliance with Australian Standards.
Identify any non-compliances which need remedial work to satisfy State & Legislative requirements.
Upon completion, provide an on-site explanation of the findings.
Consolidate findings into a final written report; including photographic references and commentary on any non-compliance issues.
IF all inspected items are compliant* Pool-Pass will provide you with:
1. A Certificate of Barrier Compliance (Form 23) … normally within 24 hours.
2. The Finalized Inspection Report itself will be emailed to you within 24 - 48 hours.We are pleased to provide this service for a fixed price of $297.00+gst.
*In the event of any non-compliances, Pool-Pass will explain your options regarding remedial works. We will then arrange a date & time for a re-inspection; once the modifications have been completed.
-
Re-Inspection Services
Subsequent to the initial site inspection revealing non-compliance issues, you will have up to 60 days to remedy the non-compliant items listed in the Inspection Report.
When you are able to confirm that the modifications have been completed, Pool-Pass will arrange to revisit the site and re-inspect the work which has been carried out.
Based on the successful resolution of the non-compliant items (and no additional compliance issues) a Certificate of Barrier Compliance (Form 23) can be issued immediately.
The price for this subsequent Site Inspection and compliance sign-off, is $143.00+gst.
PLEASE NOTE:
Pool-Pass will not undertake re-inspections conducted by another Company’s Inspectors; as it is likely there will be some inconsistency in interpretation and therefore the outcomes of the inspections.
We advocate that you should follow-up with the initial Inspector/Company; to ensure that your interests are best served and that your money is best spent.
“ … In order for a successful commercial market to establish, we believe there must be no prescribed maximum fee for the inspection and certification of a safety barrier. However, we are wary of the potential for a ‘race to the bottom’ by practitioners offering inspection services.”
