Inspections? Pool Safety Certificates? Buying? Selling? Renting? Annual inspections? It’s all very confusing. mypoolinspection is Australia’s only dedicated pool fence inspection company that services multiple states and has government accredited certifiers which live local to your area. Each state in Australia has different requirements regarding registering your pool, which Australian standards apply and when inspections are required.
My utmost pleasure – has been great working with you and your team! Would love a copy of the Tenant Guide if possible – you can’t put a dollar sign on that kind of value!!Chanel Nguyen - LJ Hooker Port Douglas

We want your pool fence to pass its first inspection, so that you don’t have to pay reinspection fees. Use our free DIY checklists to prepare your pool fence before our inspector arrives.
All you need to do is to take a look at your pool fence (with or without the checklist). Then, take some snaps on your smart phone or digital camera and email them to us with a short description of the problem (e.g. can this pot plant be next to the fence?). We ring you and confirm what you should do.
With our extremely competitive pricing and our commitment to getting you passed first time, every time, we believe we offer the very best in value for our customers. We’re fast and affordable.
