Swimming pools and spas should be a fun and safe environment for friends and family to enjoy.

Our swimming pool and safety barrier inspection will highlight issues at the time of inspection in regards to the pumps and filtration system, pool heating, shell and finishes of the pool itself and also the safety barrier.

We will note any non-compliance of the safety barrier on the report. Our pool inspector is one of only a handful qualified and experienced to inspect and provide a report of your swimming pool and safety barrier.

Many homes have had additions and / or some structures built without approval. e.g. patios, sheds and carports to mention a few.

A retrospective approval is having the necessary approvals granted “retrospectively” or after they have been built.

Home Integrity will carry out a full site investigation for structural adequacy and compliance to planning and building codes.

This inspection is carried out by a registered builder and drafts person, who understand the system and are both experienced in having approvals granted fast.

Home Integrity will then liaise with the local council / shire and other consultants and provide a full written building report / quote detailing items required to have the structures approved.

If you are an Owner Builder and require Home Owner Warranty Insurance to sell your home, Home Integrity can complete the building inspection and building report required by the insurer to take out Home Owner Warranty Builders Warranty Insurance.

Home Integrity carry the necessary professional indemnity insurance and are recommended by insurance brokers and companies.
