Pool Failed Its Inspection in
Kurunjang?
If your Kurunjang pool or spa barrier didn't pass first time, the fix is usually smaller than it sounds — most often a garden feature that's crept into the clear zone, or gate hardware that's simply aged. The follow-up visit from Ryan Gaw, VBA-registered Pool Safety Inspector (IN-PS 100055), is free. Sort what's on your Non-Conformance Report and call 0402 860 499; pass, and your Form 23 is signed and issued the same day — lodging it with Melton City Council within 30 days is then yours to do.

In Short: A failed first inspection in Kurunjang usually comes down to a mature garden feature that's drifted into the non-climbable zone, or gate hardware showing its age on this suburb's 80s-90s stock. Fix what's listed, book the follow-up, and it's free. Pass, and your Form 23 is signed and issued the same day; lodging it with Melton City Council within 30 days is on you as the owner.

What Happens After a Pool Fails Inspection in Kurunjang?
A failed first inspection isn't a penalty and it doesn't sit on any public record — it's a to-do list. Kurunjang's mature-garden housing stock produces a fairly consistent version of it:
- You receive a Non-Conformance Report naming each item that failed and the clause it breached
- You arrange the repairs — often shifting a garden feature clear of the barrier, sometimes a hardware swap
- You call 0402 860 499 and we book the free re-inspection
- If everything on the list now passes, your Form 23 is signed and issued that same visit
If you already have a Non-Conformance Report from us, always come back for the free re-inspection rather than booking a fresh full inspection. Planning garden or fencing work first? A compliance consultation is the better starting point.
Local knowledge
Why Kurunjang Barriers Fail First Time
Kurunjang's 80s-90s family stock, with decades of established gardens around most pools, produces a distinctive failure pattern:
- Climbable objects/vegetation inside the 900mm NCZ — the dominant issue here, where a shrub, pot plant or trellis planted well clear of the barrier originally has grown into the clear zone over years without anyone noticing.
- Gate not self-closing or self-latching from any position — the secondary issue, where hardware from the original build has simply worn past its working life.
Both are usually quick fixes once identified. Neighbouring Melton West sees more of the pure hardware-age version; Brookfield further out has a newer mix with less vegetation encroachment.
Deadlines
How Long Do I Have to Fix a Failed Kurunjang Inspection?
A failed inspection here doesn't come with a built-in deadline of its own. The one that counts is a sale: the Form 23 has to be issued within a 90-day window before settlement, so if a mature-garden encroachment held up your first attempt and you're selling soon, don't leave the trim until the last minute. Outside of a sale, there's no cost penalty for taking your time.
Melton City Council
Who Lodges the Form 23 After a Kurunjang Re-Inspection?
Melton City Council sees no paperwork from a failed first inspection — only a pass generates the certificate. Once the re-inspection confirms the mature-garden clearance issue is sorted, I sign and issue the Form 23 the same day; from there, lodging it with council inside the statutory 30-day window is your responsibility as the owner.
Mention at booking if the certificate is for a property sale, since the 90-day settlement window changes how quickly we need to move. Full registration and lodgement detail is on the Form 23 certificate guide and the Melton City Council compliance guide.

FAQ
Kurunjang Re-Inspection FAQs
How soon after repairs can you come back for the re-inspection in Kurunjang?
Usually within a week. We're regularly through Kurunjang on our Melton-area route, so a call once the Non-Conformance Report items are sorted gets you booked into the next slot.
Does a Kurunjang re-inspection cost anything?
No additional cost — your original $250 Kurunjang inspection already covers it. Only a genuinely separate, later inspection would attract a new fee.
What does the re-inspector actually recheck in Kurunjang?
Only what's named on your Non-Conformance Report. In Kurunjang that's most often a garden feature that's crept into the non-climbable zone, or worn gate hardware — we recheck exactly those items, not the whole barrier.
I moved the pot plant or garden bed that was flagged — is that enough to pass?
Usually, yes, if that was the only issue named on your report. We measure the clear zone again at the re-inspection to confirm it's genuinely clear, not just visually tidier.
Is there a deadline to fix things before I have to pay again in Kurunjang?
There's no expiry built into the $250 fee. The deadline that matters is a property sale — the Form 23 has to be issued inside a 90-day window before settlement.
