Self inspections

You must regularly inspect your swimming pool barrier and gate to make sure it’s safe. Use the self-assessment checklists on the NSW Swimming Pool Register website.

Inspections by Council

Council can inspect your swimming pool or spa at any time, however  it’s more likely if:

  • We receive a complaint about your pool
  • Your pool is considered to be high risk – for example, if it’s at a childcare business or foster care location
  • Your pool hasn’t been inspected before
  • You’ve applied for a pool certificate.

See our Pool Inspections page for more information about how Council inspects pools.
