Playground Installations & Services

Each job is unique, so the services required are tailored accordingly. A visit to the site might be necessary for some projects, but not for all.

The timing of the work is arranged by our team and the person assigned to the specific project. The planning for installation starts even before the final product choices are made. We carefully consider the size of the space and its unique features, which often influence the options available. Every institution has a custom layout specific to them, so we offer a range of options that can be adapted or adjusted to fit their needs. Each model may have its own set of individual requirements, which significantly impacts how the job is executed.

Once the product choices are finalized, we will provide a detailed cost estimate for the project, following industry norms and standards. This estimate will reflect the scope of work and any adjustments required based on the site assessment.

We will explain the extent of the work needed, which might include on-site tasks such as significant leveling, setting up drainage systems, removing old playground equipment, and addressing any other relevant issues. Our team will ensure the site meets all necessary requirements for the equipment’s intended use area. Many organizations choose to hire their own contractors for and we are prepared to work collaboratively with them to ensure the installation is done correctly.

In addition, we provide ongoing support and communication throughout the project to address any questions or concerns that may arise. Our goal is to ensure that the installation process is as smooth and efficient as possible, resulting in a playground that meets the highest standards of quality and safety.

Compliance & Rules

The National Playground Safety Institute (NPSI) has issued rules that are required by each state, ensuring that playground equipment and installations adhere to strict safety standards. These rules are aligned with the guidelines set by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which are critical for ensuring the safety and reliability of playground environments.

Our commitment to these standards is reflected in every piece of equipment and surface material we supply. Each product undergoes rigorous testing and quality assurance to meet the requirements.

In the event of an accident, meeting all required safety standards can significantly reduce or even eliminate legal liability.

In addition to legal protections, following these established safety standards can enhance the institution's reputation by showcasing a commitment to quality and child safety. This can be particularly valuable in fostering trust and confidence among parents, caregivers, and the broader community.

Peak Recreation will provide you with a comprehensive cost estimate for your project, based on industry standards and recommendations. Our estimate will cover the essential aspects of the installation, including basic leveling work, digging expenses related to preparing the surface, and all necessary materials such as concrete for foundations, smoothing the ground, and other critical details required for a successful installation.

However, please note that the estimate will not include additional expenses that may arise during the project. These extra costs can include:If fence sections need to be moved or reinstalled to improve access to the site, these costs will be separate from the initial estimate. Should there be a need to install walls to prevent soil erosion or manage slopes, these are considered additional expenses. If the site requires specific drainage solutions to manage water flow and prevent flooding, these costs will also be additional. Any other unforeseen site-specific requirements, will be handled separately.

If you have any specific concerns or requirements beyond the standard scope, please let us know so we can address them accordingly and provide a more tailored estimate.

It is important to note that several factors that go into project timing. Some of these include: Rain, snow, or extreme temperatures can cause delays in both the delivery of materials and the installation process. Occasionally, unforeseen shortages of specific materials may arise. We will proactively address any challenges and keep you informed. Unique site conditions, such as unexpected underground obstacles or changes in ground stability, may require additional work or adjustments to the original plan.

We are committed to maintaining open communication, providing timely updates, and offering solutions to any issues that may arise. Our goal is to ensure that every aspect of the project is handled professionally, and meets your expectations.
