The benefits of getting certified before you lease
Make sure your property is ready to lease
Get your pool or spa inspected before advertising your property, so you know everything is in place before tenants move in.
Avoid delays in finding a tenant
If your pool requires rectification, identifying it early gives you time to complete any necessary work without holding up your lease.
Meet your legal requirements
Under NSW legislation, rental properties with a pool or spa must have a valid Compliance Certificate before they can be leased.
Know exactly what's required
If your pool isn't compliant, we'll provide a clear report with photos and practical recommendations, so you know exactly what needs attention.
Get full support from our team
From your first inspection through to final certification, we're here to answer questions, explain the process and help you get your property ready for tenants.

Receive your report
You'll receive your inspection results promptly. If your pool is compliant, we'll issue your Compliance Certificate straight away.

If rectification is required
If your pool or spa doesn't meet the required standards, we'll provide a Non-Compliance Certificate and arrange a complimentary on-site meeting with you and your contractor to explain the report, answer questions and discuss the required rectification work.
5
Complete the required works
Your chosen contractor completes the rectification work within the required timeframe. Our clear report makes it easy to understand what's needed before we return for the final inspection. If you need more time, we'll liaise with Local Council on your behalf.

Compliance achieved
Once your pool meets NSW safety requirements, we'll issue your official Pool Certificate of Compliance, ready for selling or leasing your property.
