Just a few years ago, the government began requiring that all swimming pools and spas be registered. This means that a Sydney pool certificate is issued after the swimming pool and/or spa has been inspected by qualified Sydney swimming pool and fence certifiers.
The purpose of this certificate is so that they enhance the safety of young children around backyard swimming pools and put a stop to easily preventable drownings, injuries, and accidents. Without this type of certificate, you won’t ever be able to resell your home at all.
What’s the Purpose?
The purpose of accredited swimming pool certifiers in Sydney is to inspect your gates, barriers, and pool area for safety and compliance with relevant standards, and to identify any safety breaches and advise how to address them. This is done by an expert who has extensive experience in this field and who you can trust to make sure that your pool is safe.
These experts know what to look out for in terms of safety hazards and can tell you what needs to be fixed in order to make sure that your pool is compliant. If you don’t get these issues fixed, you won’t be able to qualify for the certificate.
The Process
As mentioned previously, a pool certifier will come out to your property and inspect your pool or spa to make sure that they are up to code. If they aren’t, they can advise you exactly how to rectify any such issues.
After you have gone ahead and fixed the issues that the pool certifier pointed out, you will be eligible to receive a compliance certificate which becomes part of your contract of sale or lease for your property. If you ever decide to sell your property, you can market it as having a compliance certificate.
With a certificate to offer, you are essentially guaranteed a buyer. In fact, a Sydney pool safety certificate is so desirable for any buyer that without it, you might lose your sale or lease. Naturally, this is a situation you don’t want to put yourself in.
