Across greater Auckland there has been a huge surge in the complexity of planning matters arising during the consent process. It takes a lot to navigate the Unitary Plan rules - which can seem like a lot of work to just put in a simple swimming pool - especially one under 35kL! Need any practical advice or help to work through the process? Feel free to reach out!

Did you know that the Building (Earthquake-prone Building Deadlines and Other Matters) Amendment Act came into effect on 26 November 2024? It included a minor change to clarify which small heated pools (such as spa pools) are exempt from the requirement for periodic inspection – that is, small heated pools that have a safety cover that complied at installation, or currently complies, with the New Zealand Building Code.

All other residential pools, including small heated pools without a Building Code-compliant safety cover, are required to be inspected at least once every three years to determine whether the pool barriers comply. Inspections can be carried out by territorial authorities or independently qualified pool inspectors.

This means all swim spas and pools over 5m2 are affected. Get in touch if you require further clarity about how this could impact your pool or spa.

Christmas Rush
The summer sun begins to gleam,
And pools sparkle like a dream.
But Christmas looms, and there’s a race—
To get that fencing in its place.

The rules are clear, no time to stall,
For safety first must guide us all.
Calls and plans, the rush is on,
Before the festive days are gone.

“Will it be done?” they fret and say,
“We need our pool for Christmas Day!”
Laughter, swims, and family cheer—
But only if compliance is here.

So hurry now, don’t leave it late,
A fenced-off pool will be just great.
Enjoy the season, safe and sound,
With splashes and joy all around!

Is your pool one of the 1000's of pools in NZ put in WITHOUT a consent? We're aware of many pool builders putting in pools under 35kL without gaining the necessary consent for pool fencing or correctly notifying property owners of their responsibilities. We can help register your swimming pool and add it to your property file to future proof it for sale, and ensure you meet all your legal obligations. For a 'no-questions asked' guide to a simple registration process, feel free to send us a message.
