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: Will my playground installer put down a playground surface, too?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to install a playground?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/swing-set-cost.htm#">Playground installation costs</a> around <b>$500</b> on average, which doesn&rsquo;t include the cost of the playground itself.

Mark was very professional on the phone. He ended up doing more work than originally planned, but his final bill was $100 less than the first quote we got, and that didn't even include the new opener! We are very pleased with the work he did and quality of the newly installed equipment.
