What is the best material to put under a playset?

• <div><p>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. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-are-pros-and-cons-rubber-mulch.htm">Rubber mulch</a> is slightly more expensive than other common options at <b>$120 per cubic yard</b> on average, whereas pine bark mulch is <b>$30 per cubic yard.</b> 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.</p></div>

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>

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>

How do I know they’re ready to go outside?

• <div><p>If your seedlings have reached a few inches in height and the weather outside has stabilized to where you’re no longer seeing overnight temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, it may be time to start hardening them off to get them ready to be planted in the garden. </p></div>

Just great. The installer completed the kitchen work first so as not to get outside dirt inside. I love having pure drinking water inset his old house. The exterior work went smoothly as well. He paid attention to my desire to have the equipment hidden and not in view through a window.

"Blake did an excellent and thorough job. We had a leak that he diagnosed and fixed which ended up being a roof issue. He repaired some exterior window framing and also installed new tile floors. He is very detail oriented and his work is impeccable. I have already referred him to neighbors and will definitely use him again."
