About Poolshield

Many pool safety inspectors simply identify non-compliant items and leave property owners to organise repairs themselves. This often creates delays, additional costs, and unnecessary frustration.

Poolshield offers a more practical approach.

In addition to conducting official QBCC pool safety inspections, we provide minor pool barrier repairs and compliance adjustments on the spot. This means many common issues can be rectified quickly without the need to engage multiple contractors.

Our services include:

• QBCC Pool Safety Inspections
• Form 23 Pool Safety Certificates
• Pool Gate Repairs (latches, hinges, and alignment)
• Pool Fence Repairs and Adjustments (shielding and gaps)
• Pre-Sale Pool Compliance Inspections
• Pre-Lease Pool Compliance Assessments
• Airbnb and Holiday Accommodation Compliance Checks

By combining inspections and repairs, we streamline your pathway to compliance and certification.

Poolshield was founded by Brad Poulton with a commitment to providing honest advice, reliable service, and practical compliance solutions for Sunshine Coast property owners.

As a licensed QBCC Pool Safety Inspector, Brad has extensive hands-on experience inspecting and assessing pool barriers across residential, commercial, and accommodation properties. He works with all common fencing systems, including glass, aluminium, and timber pool fencing.

Rather than simply identifying problems, Brad takes the time to explain requirements clearly and provide practical recommendations to help clients achieve compliance with minimal disruption and unnecessary expense.

His customer-first approach has helped Poolshield build a strong reputation throughout the Sunshine Coast for professional service, transparent advice, and dependable results.
