"I have used JW Home Improvement services for several years and they never disappoint. Pablo Molina and Mario Cortex were true artisans; professional, and meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of the project. They restored my 33-year-old porch to its original state."

"Ralph and Kevin were great. They took time to explain everything they did and were very patient when we asked lots of basic questions. They had multiple opportunities to up-sell us, but they were honest about what equipment would ultimately meet our needs. These guys are trustworthy and knowledgeable. I am very glad I used them and would definitely recommend them."

"Overall everything went very well, especially considering this project was outside their typical comfort zone including a lot more drywall type work than your typical electrical project. The demolition went very well with no damage to the walls of the room and with very little dust. LV sealed off every door and our intake vent for our HVAC system and overall seemed to treat our house as if it was their own that needed to be kept as clean as possible. LV did a masterful job installing the new drywall ceiling. It's perfectly flat with no sanding or fixes needed whatsoever. The amount and placement of lighting are perfect and much better than what we had previously. There are two minor downsides: One, since they are electricians, they wouldn't paint the ceiling. Perfectly understandable and nothing to complain about, but worth noting in case anybody else needs this type of work and LV is willing to do it. Two, Vincent forgot to include the price of the crown molding in the first estimate so the overall price was a little more expensive than first proposed. Not a big deal since they still saved us money compared to other contractors for this job and was very reasonable overall, but worth noting. In the future I'd recommend that LV should provide a detailed estimate in writing before the work begins. We've used them for another project previously and will do so again in the next month or so, but only 1 of these 3 projects have been put in writing before the work has been performed. Documenting the work in such a manner may help avoid minor communication issues like with the crown molding."

Playground Equipment FAQs, answered by experts

It’s usually possible to install a playground yourself, but we don’t recommend it. Playground construction can be complicated and involves moving large, heavy, and bulky components into place while you affix them to other pieces. Not only is the work physically demanding, but any mistakes could reduce the lifespan of your playground and potentially put any children who use the equipment at risk of injury. It’s relatively inexpensive to hire a professional playground installer, and it’s usually worth the investment, if only for the peace of mind it provides.

There are many different types of basketball hoops available to choose from. 

  • Portable hoops are fully moveable and generally do not require assistance with assembly. 

  • Semi-portable in-ground hoops have an anchor cemented in the ground and a removable post.

  • In-ground hoops are fully built into the ground as one piece and cannot be relocated after placement. 

  • Wall-mounted hoops do not have a post or pole and work well when space is limited.

Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The average cost to build a swing set is $514, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require—if you don’t want to give up your weekend, it’s worth considering buying instead of building.

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.

Choosing a suitable backyard playset that’s age-appropriate and entertaining for your children is worth the cost. A backyard playset you can update and upgrade as your kids grow offers even more benefits. Although a playset won’t substantially increase your home’s value, it won’t negatively affect it either.
