Pool safety,
sorted properly.
The Chief inspects your pool or spa barrier, tells you where you stand in plain English, and hands over the certificate the moment it passes.
Why do I need my pool barrier to comply?
Every pool and spa needs a safety barrier - a fence, gate and surrounds that stop young children reaching the water unsupervised. Compliance means that barrier meets the safety rules that apply where you live, and everyone is safe.
The Chief checks yours against those rules, points out anything that needs attention in plain English, and issues your compliance certificate once it passes.
Obvious failures that can cost lives.
Most fails come down to the simplest things that are easy to fix to get that pass. Here's what the Chief sees most often.
Gate won't self-close
A gate that doesn't swing shut and latch on its own from any position.
Latch within reach
A release latch mounted low enough for a small child to reach.
Gaps in the barrier
Openings under or through the fence a child could squeeze through.
Climbable objects
Pots, furniture or trees in the zone that give a leg-up over the barrier.
Barrier too low
A fence that doesn't meet the required height the whole way around.
Propped-open gate
A damaged, wedged or tied-open gate — the most common one of all.
It's as easy as 1, 2, 3 with the Chief.

Frequently asked.
The things people ask most before they book. Can't see yours? Ask the Chief.
What happens during an inspection?+
The Chief assesses your barrier against the rules that apply to your property - gate, latch, height, gaps and the non-climbable zone — then gives you a clear rundown of what passed and what needs attention.
What if my barrier doesn't pass?+
You won't be left guessing. The Chief explains exactly which items need attention and what's required to fix them. Sort them out, book a re-inspection, and he re-assesses what needed attention.
When do I get the certificate?+
The moment your barrier complies, the appropriate compliance certificate is issued.
Which areas do you cover?+
The Chief covers Melbourne and surrounds. Not sure if you're in the zone? Ask the Chief.
