Disclosures & Transparency
About Pool Sorted
Pool Sorted is an online directory that connects Australians with pool service providers, including pool cleaners, pool fencing installers, and compliance inspectors. Our goal is to make it easier for pool owners to find trusted professionals in their area.
Featured & Sponsored Listings
Some listings on Pool Sorted are marked as “Featured” or “Sponsored.” These are paid placements where businesses have chosen to pay for increased visibility and prominent positioning within our directory. Featured providers may appear at the top of search results or in highlighted sections across the site.
What Featured Does Not Mean
A “Featured” badge indicates a paid placement only. It does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or guarantee of quality, reliability, or competence. Paying for a featured listing does not influence our editorial standards or imply that the provider has been assessed or ranked based on merit.
Verified Badges
Providers displaying a “Verified” badge have been verified by the Pool Sorted team. Verification confirms that the business exists and has provided valid contact information and proof of operation. It does not guarantee the quality of work performed or compliance with any specific industry standards.
Banner Advertisements
Pool Sorted displays banner advertisements in a sidebar on desktop and as a horizontal strip on mobile devices. These banners are paid placements purchased by businesses for $30 per month. Banner ads appear on every page of the site and are clearly labelled as “Sponsored.” The presence of a banner ad does not constitute an endorsement, recommendation, or guarantee of quality. Placeholder ads linking to our “List Your Business” page may appear when ad slots are not yet filled.
Your Due Diligence
We recommend that users conduct their own due diligence before engaging any service provider listed on Pool Sorted. This may include verifying licences and insurance, requesting references, obtaining multiple quotes, and checking relevant regulatory requirements in your state or territory. Pool Sorted does not accept liability for the services provided by any listed business.
