Q: Do I need a permit for a playground?

• <div><p>Whether or not you need a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/do-i-really-need-building-permit.htm">building permit</a> for a playground depends on where you live. Some municipalities will require a permit for the construction of any playground equipment while others will only mandate one if you use a concrete foundation for any portion of the equipment. You can check with your local building department or a professional playground installer to see if your project requires a permit. Some municipalities also require a fence if you have a playground, and fence construction will almost always require a building permit.</p></div>

Q: How do I find a good playground installer?

• <div><p>You can start by finding playground installers in your area that have amassed mostly positive reviews online. Next, search for the companies on the Better Business Bureau&rsquo;s (BBB) website to see if any consumer complaints have been filed. Once you rule out companies with poor reviews and a history of complaints, contact the remaining options and ask the following questions to find the right installer for you:</p><ul><li><p>Will you pull permits if required?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer a warranty?</p></li><li><p>How long do you expect the installation to take?</p></li><li><p>Do you have experience working with the specific playground material I want?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Should I build my own swing set?

• <div><p>It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren&rsquo;t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won&rsquo;t last as long as metal or vinyl and introduces the risk of splinters. Instead, hire a local playground equipment installer to ensure the swing set is built safely and efficiently, setting up your kids for fun for years to come.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to build your own swing set?

• <div><p>Material markup costs and labor expenses are the additional primary costs of hiring a playground installer over building your own set. Labor costs are typically less costly than some more specialized home improvement projects. DIY swing set construction is less expensive than professional installation but will take considerably more time and effort to perform.</p></div>
