As we head into a new school year, now is the perfect time to make sure your playground is ready for whatever the weather brings, so children can enjoy year round play, come rain or shine!
Here are 3 ways to make your playground ready for year-round play:
1. Surfacing
Playground surfacing plays a key role in both safety and enjoyment. Wet weather, frost and standing water can affect how surfaces perform, while wear and damage can reduce their effectiveness over time. If your playground surfacing is looking tired, worn or no longer providing the level of protection it should, now is the time to consider a resurfacing project.We can help bring your playground back to life with a range of durable surfacing options, including resin bonded mulch, tarmac and artificial grass, creating a safe and inviting space for children all year round.

2. Shelter and Shade
Outdoor shelters and canopies provide valuable, flexible spaces where children can learn, play and socialise while staying protected from rain, wind and elements. Whether you’re looking for a timber canopy, enclosed canopy or a dedicated outdoor classroom space, we can help you find a solution that works for your setting. From covered play areas to inspiring spaces for outdoor learning, our shelters can make your outdoor space more versatile and usable all year round.
3. Repairs and Maintenance
Regular repairs and preventative maintenance can help extend the life of your play equipment, keep it safe and minimise the risk of small issues becoming costly problems. From worn components and damanged timber to loose fixings, tired equipment and general wear and tear, our in house inspectors can help get your playground back in top condition.
