There are many different types of basketball hoops available to choose from. 

• Portable hoops are fully moveable and generally do not require assistance with assembly. 

• Semi-portable in-ground hoops have an anchor cemented in the ground and a removable post.

• In-ground hoops are fully built into the ground as one piece and cannot be relocated after placement. 

• Wall-mounted hoops do not have a post or pole and work well when space is limited.

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.

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?

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.
