Playground Repair
Playground Repair Services
Wobbly equipment? Worn safety surfacing? Something’s squeaking that definitely shouldn’t be squeaking? We’ve seen it all, and more importantly, we’ve fixed it all.
Playgrounds take an absolute hammering. New Zealand weather doesn’t help – scorching Canterbury summers, Auckland’s endless rain, coastal salt spray, and nor’westers that test everything. Add a pack of enthusiastic kids swinging, climbing, and launching themselves off equipment daily, and it’s no wonder things eventually need attention.
- structural repairs to climbing frames and play structures
- replace worn or broken components like swings, chains, and slides
- fix or replace damaged safety surfacing
- repair timber elements affected by rot or weathering
- address loose or corroded hardware and fixings
- fix drainage issues causing water pooling or surface deterioration
The key with playground repairs? Catching problems early. That slightly wobbly post today becomes a safety hazard tomorrow. The small patch of worn surfacing expands into a major replacement job if left unchecked. Our company are big believers in preventive maintenance, regular inspections and small repairs now save you serious money and headaches down the track.
Safety-Critical Repairs
Some repairs can’t wait. If equipment poses an immediate safety risk, we treat it as urgent. We understand that schools and childcare centres can’t just close their playgrounds indefinitely, and families don’t want kids missing out on outdoor play. We prioritise safety-critical repairs and work efficiently to get your playground back in action.
Every repair we complete meets NZS 5828:2015 safety standards. We don’t do dodgy patch-ups or temporary fixes that’ll cause problems later. When we repair something, it’s done properly with quality materials and workmanship you can trust.
Repair vs Replace
Sometimes the honest answer is replacement rather than repair. We’ll never string you along with expensive repairs on equipment that’s reached the end of its useful life. Our assessments are straightforward, we’ll tell you what’s worth fixing and what needs replacing, with no pressure either way.
We service playgrounds across New Zealand, from residential backyards to commercial installations. Whether it’s a quick hardware replacement or a comprehensive repair project involving multiple components, our qualified team has the expertise and equipment to handle it.
