  • Barrier installers (fencing contractors) must be registered with the VBA / BPB as either a DB-U, DB-L S or DB-L G and enter into a domestic building contract to carry out construction of a swimming pool or spa barrier when the cost of building work is in excess of $5,000 (incl. labour & materials).
