4-Outdoor is the ONLY company that offers top quality sheds & garages, handles the grading & site preparation for you, and beats any written estimate by $50!

"WORST COMPANY EVER!!!!! I ordered a shed in early 2021. I paid half up front. The shed wasn't delivered until June 2022. To be fair, the weather was a problem at times, and they also had many supply chain issues so I waited and waited. In the end, they delivered a gorgeous shed BUT the owner, Brett, installed it improperly by dragging the shed over level gravel so it was left with floating beams on either side. Under the shed there are big gouges and no support in many parts. He claimed that the pad was improperly built and not level, but he did not call me to say so - he just put the shed down unsupported and left. An experienced contractor built the shed platform with at least 5" of 57 gravel surrounded by 6x6 pressure-treated wood beams rooted into the ground. The pad was absolutely level. All 4- Outdoor had to do was put the shed on top of the pad. However, they put the shed on crookedly, then dragged it into place. When I called to resolve the issue on June 5th, I got no answer until 7 July when I found out that he was, unfortunately, hospitalized. I contacted them again in August, then September, then finally got a response in October. Brett wants me to PAY to move the shed, level the gravel, and then replace the shed. He should have done this to begin with!!! Through 1.5 years of correspondance I had to deal with his front desk person who tried her best. When I finally asked to speak directly to him, I was stunned at how incredibly rude he was. I got in half a sentence to begin to explain the issue and he went on and on and on for more than 5 minutes whining about not working for free, that my pad was not right, that it wasn't his fault, and more. Stay away from this company. The owner is rude, doesn't care, did an improper install, won't warranty the work by fixing it, and wants to charge me for something he should have done right to begin with. I see I am not the only one who has left such bad review. Terrible company. Stay away."

Playground Equipment questions, answered by experts

Wood, metal, and plastic are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.

It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don’t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren’t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won’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.

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.

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.

Whether or not you need a building permit 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.
