Playground Inspections

Many accreditation programs require that your equipment be inspected by a  certified playground safety inspector, and we can help you with that. The  prices range depending on how much equipment there is to inspect. The  average price is $200.00 to $400.00 (this depends on the size of the  equipment).

Each playground is listed on the audit, then each piece of equipment on that playground is listed and inspected. If any parts are found not meeting the Consumer Product Safety Commission Guidelines for playground safety, then they will be noted and then given a priority as to how quickly it should be repaired. We can also give you an estimate on any repairs if needed.

We can come and inspect your playgrounds and write up a full set of forms so that you can have your own staff personnel do your monthly  inspections.

Some institutions have us come in once per quarter to till their ground  cover and inspect their equipment to help ensure their existing  equipment is in current safe working condition, (this inspection does not use the extensive CPSC guidelines), then give any repair estimates if needed. 

It  is a good idea to have your new equipment inspected just after it is  installed to make sure everything was installed correctly. For an added cost of approximately $150.00, it can help make sure that the job performed gets off to a great and safe start. For example, it is very difficult 5 years later or after an accident to go back and find out that one piece of equipment was installed 6 inches too close to another. 

We  can come to your location and give your staff a 2 hour training  session. We cover things like playground supervision, dangers on the playgrounds, and we go over some of the accident statistics. Knowing  where most accidents happen on a playground helps the care givers know  where some extra attention needs to be given. We then go out on the  playground and do some hands-on inspecting to see if they can find some  of the props we setup. Oh, and by the way, did I mention we go over  playground supervision? 

Vandalism, weather, or whatever the reason, give us a call and we will come out and inspect the equipment and give you an estimate for the repairs.
