Playground Maintenance

What This Service Involves

We service play structures, swings, slides, and fasteners on a recurring schedule, tightening hardware and replacing worn components before they become hazards. Loose-fill and unitary surfacing is groomed, topped up, and depth-checked to keep fall zones within CPSC and ASTM guidance. Every visit is documented so risk managers and parks staff have a defensible record of care. Our technicians are familiar with the equipment lines and drainage challenges common to Western Washington parks.

Benefits

Fewer injury claims through proactive hazard correction; Extended equipment life that protects capital investment; Compliance documentation aligned to CPSC and ASTM standards; Faster identification of parts needing replacement before failure

Our Process

1) Inventory each play area's equipment, surfacing, and known issues; 2) Set an inspection and service frequency matched to usage; 3) Tighten, adjust, lubricate, and replace worn hardware and components; 4) Restore surfacing depth and record findings for the agency file

What Affects the Cost

Number and size of play areas under contract; Equipment age and replacement-part availability; Surfacing type, whether engineered wood fiber or poured-in-place; Required service frequency and reporting detail

Best Time of Year

Servicing runs year-round, with heavier surfacing top-offs in spring ahead of the busy summer play season.
