All private swimming pools and spas—whether above or below ground—require a Building Permit before installation. Applications must include a detailed site plan showing the pool and its safety barrier, along with structural engineering certification. A compliant safety barrier is mandatory and must meet all relevant legislation, including the Building Regulations 2012 and Australian Standards.
You can submit a general enquiry through OneConnect or call our Customer Service’s team on (08) 9158 9300 weekdays between 8:00am and 3.45pm.
