Playset Repairs and Add-ons

Rainbow Playset crushed by a tree during hurricane Ike!
There's your Problem!
It's common for parents to buy a smaller swingset made for a toddler and later realize their little rug crawler is a rock climber. When this happens, the first instinct might be to get rid of it and get a bigger one. Why not update the old playset with age appropriate upgrades? 

Maybe the family playset is looking like it's time for retirement or possibly a huge tree fell on it during a hurricane, like the one to the left, and it looks more like firewood than a swingset. While we can't save them all, even as bad as this one looks, we were able to save it. 

Repairs and add-ons are our speciality. Due to the overwhelming variety of swingsets and options, it's best to call and schedule a consultation for any type of repair or upgrade. We offer an experienced onsite opinion for $200. If you use any of our service for repairs, upgrades, moves, etc., we'll apply 50% of the consultation to the service expense. Our playset technicians are specifically trained to inspect and evaluate wooden backyard play systems for safety, durability, and functionality.

Things to think about before you hire a playset installer

  • ​Do they have a website? In the 21st century, what real business doesn't?
  • Beware of swingset installers who don't list a phone number or an e-mail address in their ad. Where will they be next month or next year?​
  • ​Believe it or not finding the cheapest deal isn't always the best thing. Beware of installers who don't charge enough. They could be hard up for cash and don't care what happens after they're paid. Playset installation is always a mental challenge and hard work. A professional will know their value.
