Which artificial turf is more durable?

• <div><p>For artificial turf that’s the most durable, look for heat-resistant products with thicker blades. Keep in mind that there’s a difference between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/artificial-grass-vs-turf.htm">artificial grass versus artificial turf</a>, with turf consisting of a shorter look while artificial grass is longer and more closely resembles real grass.</p></div>

Is it cheaper to build or buy a swing set?

• <div><p>Generally speaking, building a swing set is cheaper than buying a prefabricated one, but this assumes you have all the tools and knowledge to complete the project. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/swing-set-cost.htm">average cost to build a swing set</a> is <b>$514</b>, but you should also factor in the time and effort it will require—if you don’t want to give up your weekend, it’s worth considering buying instead of building.</p></div>

How much does it cost to build a playground?

• <div><p>The cost of the materials to build a DIY playground will run you about <b>$700 to $1,000</b>, which could vary based on the type of lumber you choose to use. On the other hand, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/swing-set-cost.htm">buying a pre-made playset costs</a><b> $1,000 to $6,500</b> or more, and if you choose to have it professionally installed, you’ll pay an additional <b>$330 to $700</b>.</p></div>

Q: Which artificial turf is more durable?

• <div><p>For artificial turf that&rsquo;s the most durable, look for heat-resistant products with thicker blades. Keep in mind that there&rsquo;s a difference between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/artificial-grass-vs-turf.htm">artificial grass versus artificial turf</a>, with turf consisting of a shorter look while artificial grass is longer and more closely resembles real grass.</p></div>

Q: What materials are used for outdoor play equipment?

• <div><p>Wood, metal, and plastic are common materials. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and maintenance needs.</p></div>

Q: Should I build my own swing set?

• <div><p>It may be tempting to DIY the construction of a swing set to save money, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. Since children will use the swing set, the entire system must be solid and safe, meaning the cost savings aren&rsquo;t worth potentially endangering them. Plus, most DIYers will have to build their swing sets out of wood, which won&rsquo;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.</p></div>

I had bad water damage at my house from a washing machine malfunction and it flooded my downstairs. I called Advanced Restoration Group, and they came out in the middle of the night, and started the work. Then they came back and picked up their equipment when everything was dry and clean.

George Lowther was very helpful. The parts came quickly. There was a problem with it initially as one of the belts was wrong one, but they exchanged it and we had the right one the next day. We've used them many times before to repair equipment and were always satisfied.
