"Daniel and the Keener Landscaping team did an excellent job installing a welded wire panel and wood fence. Daniel is responsive, a great communicator, reliable and punctual. I couldn’t be happier with the work."

"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

"Christian, our EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL installer was truly a breath of fresh air. We’ve generally NOT had good experiences with ANY type of installers or repair technicians since covid hit. We always seemed to get “bottom of the barrel” poorly trained techs with “questionable” experience skillsets. Not so with Christian. He reached out almost immediately after I started the listing for the job, maintained communication and showed up on time. I thought he was only going to check the site(house) out and take some notes today, but he took a look with me, we discussed mounting location options, AND HE WENT TO WORK IMMEDIATELY!! He knocked it out in about 2 hrs, and was EXTREMELY POLITE and a pleasure to speak with THE WHOLE TIME!! We will DEFINITELY reach out to him again when we have another PROFESSIONAL technology need! Thank-you again Christian…"

"They were wonderful!!! They arrived as promised, they did excellent work and were very professional. As an example of 1 hardware item from this project, they installed a shower grab bar. Instead of just putting it up, they checked to make sure it was set at the right height for my use (I am quite short). In all, there were 13 different hardware installations!!! Thank you so much!!!"

Playground Equipment FAQs, answered by experts

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 average cost to install a playground is around $500, with most homeowners spending between $150 and $1,200 on installation labor. The total project cost can range from $500 to $2,500. These prices typically do not include the playground equipment itself, which can cost an additional $100 to $1,500.

Several factors influence the final installation cost:

  • Playset Details: The type, size, material, design complexity, and number of accessories.

  • Site Preparation: Costs may increase if the land needs to be leveled.

  • Yard Accessibility: Difficult access for installers can raise labor costs.

  • Customization: Custom-built playgrounds are more expensive to install than premade kits.

  • Permits: Local permitting fees may apply.

Additionally, remember to budget for playground surfacing, which can cost $15 to $160 per cubic yard, or up to $225 per cubic yard for poured rubber.

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.

Children can become interested in playset activities as young as two years old, and many start to lose interest between ages nine and 12. Backyard playsets can grow and adapt as the children age and playtime interests change.

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.
