Pool & spa barrier inspections in Ivanhoe

Ivanhoe is an established, leafy suburb around the Upper Heidelberg Road shops and Ivanhoe station, with period homes on generous blocks where in-ground pools are common.

Many barriers here are older or heritage-style, so gate self-closing, latch heights and fence gaps are the usual things we check and adjust before issuing the Form 23.

We check the barrier, fence and gates against the Victorian standard and issue your Form 23 Certificate of Barrier Compliance — the pool compliance certificate you lodge with council. Flat-rate inspections from $170 ex GST.

What we check in Ivanhoe

Our VBA-registered inspectors assess your pool or spa barrier against the applicable Victorian safety standard. The key checks include:

  • Self-closing, self-latching gate that never props open
  • No gap anywhere lets a 100mm sphere through
  • A clear 900mm non-climbable zone outside the barrier
  • Barrier at least 1200mm high from the outside ground
  • A current, legible CPR / resuscitation sign displayed
  • Whole barrier in good repair — no loose panels or failing latches

See the full Victorian barrier checklist on our pool barrier & fence inspection page.

Form 23 for Ivanhoe residents — lodged with Banyule

Ivanhoe is in the City of Banyule — that is where you register the pool or spa and lodge your Form 23 Certificate of Barrier Compliance.

The process in Ivanhoe follows the statewide Victorian rules: any pool or spa that can hold more than 300mm of water must be registered with the City of Banyule. A VBA-registered inspector then assesses the barrier and, once it complies, issues your Form 23 Certificate of Barrier Compliance, which is lodged with the Banyule council — generally within 30 days of issue. Barriers must be re-certified every four years, and a fresh inspection is also triggered when you sell or lease.

If the barrier does not yet comply, we give you a clear list of what to fix and re-check the work, so you get your certificate with as little back-and-forth with Banyule as possible.
