"Patsy and his team delivered a beautiful deck on time and under budget. They worked hand in glove with A&V Landscaping from design to finished product to transform our backyard from a hill to a little piece of heaven. Patsy was easy to work with and did everything he said he would do. It was like we had a favorite uncle in the construction business. A terrific experience overall."

I have been in the industry for the last 9 years, and love everything I do. My own business just started 2 weeks ago as Rogans Contracting. We do a handful of projects from remodeling bathrooms, plumbing work, electrical work, landscaping, flooring, decks and patios, and many more. As a team we would love to get out and into the community a little more, hopefully you'll be the next one we get to meet.

"Absolute Professionals! I Loved Them! I cried of emotion when I finally saw the swingset for my Grand-daughter, Theresa Rose Beautifully installed in the backyard of our NJ home. I imagined her enjoying her childhood years in her very own "Little Flower Playground" The project was completed very fast, without issues. They are very knowledgeable, respectful, kept up with communication and arrived punctually despite their long drive to Central New Jersey. I initially had to reschedule the installation twice due to Walmart messing up my swingset delivery, and they were very understanding. I was advised by a friend not to try to assemble the swingset by ourselves. I am very Happy to have followed his advice. It is worth the investment! "THANK YOU SWINGSET SERVICE, LLC""

"Russel was very professional and trustworthy. He worked around our schedule and completed the installation on time. Our final cost was within the original estimate which was much more reasonable than other estimates we received. The swingset looks great and our children love it. I will definitely recommend Russel to friends."

Playground Equipment questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether building a playground or installing a pre-made one is more affordable depends on the materials of each. In most cases, it’s more affordable to build a wooden playground than it is to buy one and have it professionally installed, but it might be less expensive to invest in a pre-made plastic playground, even if you pay a professional to install it. Wooden playgrounds tend to last longer, but as children age, they will become less valuable. Overall, it may be most affordable to have a pro install a pre-made plastic playground.

Rubber mulch is widely considered the best material to place under a playset. This material option provides more cushioning than traditional wood mulch for added protection, remains cooler than sand and most other materials in direct sunlight, and it’s low maintenance. Rubber mulch is slightly more expensive than other common options at $120 per cubic yard on average, whereas pine bark mulch is $30 per cubic yard. But when it comes to your children’s safety, the investment is worthwhile. Consult your playground equipment installation company about material recommendations before starting this project.

In most cases, your professional playground installer will put down a playground surface before assembling the fun-filled system. However, you should ask your installer about this service before booking an installment date. Most playground equipment installation companies offer service add-ons like leveling the area, laying down a surface, building a border to keep the surface material contained, and setting up the swing set.

The cost of the materials to build a DIY playground will run you about $700 to $1,000, which could vary based on the type of lumber you choose to use. On the other hand, buying a pre-made playset costs $1,000 to $6,500 or more, and if you choose to have it professionally installed, you’ll pay an additional $330 to $700.
