"I initially hired Sal to install pre-purchased garage shelving, once Sal came out he realized the shelving could not be installed due to the garage studs not being appropriately spaced out. Sal let me know he could build and install custom shelving. After a couple rounds of changing my mind on what I wanted, Sal came out and installed the shelving. Sal was very patient, informative and responsive through the process. Sal and his team did quality work, even down to using screws and not nails, so we don't have to worry about nail pops and the shelving is extremely sturdy, which is very important given this self is for garage storage."

"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"I was very pleased with the professional service that All Points Carpet Care provided. Tony and his son were prompt, courteous, efficient and thorough. They take pride in their work. They listened carefully and took extra care of certain areas that needed special attention. They did a beautiful job, and my carpets look fresh and clean - so much better!

"Have worked with Nate in the past...and he is the ONLY handyman I would EVER call in Charlotte area. We did our renovation long distance. Nate is completely trustworthy. Never had a single problem. Great communication. He painted every room, ceiling, door (interior and exterior), fireplace surround, molding, etc. Installed laminate and tile flooring. Installed and/or replaced 4 ceiling fans and light fixtures. Installed patio door to HOA specifications. Installed and stained new interior hand rail. Installed new smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. Installed dimmer switches in kitchen. Installed closet organization system in master. Hung 2 over-the-toilet cabinets. Changed the locks. And several small details that I can't recall now. PLACE LOOKS AWESOME!! And very importantly, he hauled away all the old and left everything CLEAN for us. Thank you Nate!!!"

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.

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.

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.

The average lifespan for a playset is around eight to ten years, but you can probably make it last to 15 years with good weather conditions and proper maintenance. If you’re purchasing a pre-made playset, some brands offer warranties for up to 25 years—long after your kiddos are grown.
