Pool inspection appointment preparation checklist

This checklist records six administrative preparation tasks for an inspection appointment. It does not test a pool barrier, produce a safety score or certify compliance.

What is ready for the appointment?

Collect the property address and the reason for the inspection in one note. Identify existing notices or certificates without changing their contents. A document you cannot find remains outstanding; ticking a box should mean the preparation task is complete, not that the underlying barrier has been assessed.

Ask the inspector which documents are needed before the visit and which can be discussed on arrival. Keep the complete record, including attachments, so that a missing page does not change the meaning of a previous finding.

Who will arrange entry and approval?

Record the person who can approve the scope and the person providing access. These may be different people, particularly for shared or rented property. Confirm any required arrangements directly rather than using the checklist as permission to enter.

Ask for preparation instructions that apply to the actual appointment. Do not make a barrier alteration, prop a gate or perform a home test because a box remains unticked. A question for the inspector is a valid outstanding task.

What remains after the list is complete?

The result below shows the preparation tasks you marked and the tasks still to organise. Keep a note of any question that requires the inspector's reply. The checklist state stays in this page and is not an enquiry submission or a booking.

At the appointment, follow the agreed arrangements and keep the resulting written record. If the provider asks for further information or a separate visit, add that to your own appointment notes. Completing this preparation list cannot determine the inspection outcome.
