"Alex Matos did a wonderful job at our house! He gave a reasonable quote, took lots of measurements on his visit and made me feel like he knew what he was doing. He designed the railings himself and did a wonderful job making and installing them. The railings are very sturdy! I highly recommend Alex Matos."

"Absolute Professionals! I Loved Them! I cried of emotion when I finally saw the swingset for my Grand-daughter, Theresa Rose Beautifully installed in the backyard of our NJ home. I imagined her enjoying her childhood years in her very own "Little Flower Playground" The project was completed very fast, without issues. They are very knowledgeable, respectful, kept up with communication and arrived punctually despite their long drive to Central New Jersey. I initially had to reschedule the installation twice due to Walmart messing up my swingset delivery, and they were very understanding. I was advised by a friend not to try to assemble the swingset by ourselves. I am very Happy to have followed his advice. It is worth the investment! "THANK YOU SWINGSET SERVICE, LLC""

Playground Equipment questions, answered by experts

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.

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’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:

  • Will you pull permits if required?

  • Do you offer a warranty?

  • How long do you expect the installation to take?

  • Do you have experience working with the specific playground material I want?

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.

Material markup costs and labor expenses are the additional primary costs of hiring a playground installer over building your own set. Labor costs are typically less costly than some more specialized home improvement projects. DIY swing set construction is less expensive than professional installation but will take considerably more time and effort to perform.

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.
