To kickstart our list of pool fencing tips here is a video from a legal advisor on how to protect the safety of your family and friends. Pool Fencing Tips to Avoid Headaches, Hassles, and Fines Lessons learned are invaluable, particularly when others have already paid for the lesson. Below is a curated list of customer complaints that have been filed against different fencing companies and the insights we can extract from them. Comply with bylaws: ensuring you meet municipal regulations for pool fence height, gate design, and qualitative requirements like ensuring the fence can’t be easily scaled with an adjacent prop increases the safety of your pool as well as helping you avoid additional costs or time for rework. For a full list of bylaws, see here. Minimum Height: ensure your fence has the right height to keep children from falling in, refer to specific bylaws for your city. Maximum enclosure gaps: to prevent objects from entering and striking anyone in the pool, some cities like Waterloo have restrictions on how wide an enclosure can open (i.e. exclusive of the gate). Materials: there are different rules around opening diameters for pool fences that change depending on which materials you are using.  For example, see Waterloo bylaws. The most common type of material is chain link or wood fences. Submit fence design:  in some cities like Cambridge you are required to share a plot plan of your pool indicating where it is located along with a diagram of the pool fence/enclosure that is planned. Well designed gate: make sure that your gate meets your city bylaw requirements including relative safety measures like locking mechanisms to keep children from accessing the pool on their own. Get home insurance: in the event that guests are injured at the pool at your home, getting your home insured can help you cover the costs of litigation. Costs can quickly escalate for injuries relating to spinal cord or brain damage.   Pool Fencing Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Do kiddy pools require fencing? As a rule of thumb pools that can completely submerge a child should have fencing for the safety of your family. In Waterloo, a pool that can hold at least 2 feet of water is considered a pool. What does “easily scalable” mean? Bylaw enforcement will look at how easy it is to scale your backyard or pool fence. For example, if a child only needs to use a small step stool to get over your pool fence, chances are if an inspection occurs you will be required to increase the height of your fence. How long do pool fences usually last? Fences can last anywhere from 5-10 years according to one professional fencing company. However, depending on factors like the climate of Ontario and the workmanship of the fence, this lifespan is certain to decline. Should I install my own pool fence or get someone to do it? We recommend going with a qualified service provider who can provide you with the best pool fencing craftsmanship that will last the test of time and elements. Pool fencing may be a simpler matter in moderate climates, but in Ontario, by choosing the right materials, joints, and design you can extend your pool fence by as much as 2-5 years. How long does it take to install a pool fencing? Pool fences typically take less than a week to install with labour occurring during the day for optimal visibility. Specific situations may change this timeline.

How Noise Finds Its Way Into Your Home Sound originates from a source (i.e. home stereo, siren, or a neighbour who is having a bad day), causing the air around it to vibrate. The sound travels like a wave through the air, traversing any solid material between you and the source, and finally enters the ear causing the eardrums to vibrate producing the sound we hear, pleasant or otherwise. Sound waves are difficult to halt with materials like glass, wood, or cement, making certain that you will typically hear noises from the road or neighbours. Assuming that you’ve explored options to stop the sound at the source, it is recommended that you use the following strategies to abate the sound! Sound Absorption VS. Sound Redirection Knowing these approaches can help you create a layered defense against unwanted noise. There is more than one way to reduce the noise entering your home, including both sound absorption and redirection. Sound absorption – dampens the sound by absorbing the energy waves with a material that reduces the noise. Noise cancelling headphones or ear plugs are a great example of this approach. The limitation to this approach is that it is only as effective as the material and the surface area it covers. Below we will detail how this approach is utilized without sticking something in your ear, though sometimes that is the simpler solution. Sound absorption is, in general, one aspect of sound dampening or abatement that can be coupled with multiple layers of sound reduction mechanisms. Sound Redirection – creating a solid and tightly enclosed fence can help reflect and redirect the sound back towards the source rather than allowing it to continue to move along into your home. Sound redirection is another approach to reducing the amount of sound entering a home. It is true that some products like Jakoustic acoustic barriers utilize absorption and redirection against unwanted sound.
