    What Does Our Playground Repair Service Include?

    Playground Standard (BS EN 1176) states that an appropriate inspection schedule must be established and maintained to prevent accidents. Maintenance of all playground equipment is vital. It is the responsibility of the owner to keep the play area safe, and delaying needed repairs not only shortens the life of the equipment but increases the risk of an accident.

    It is your legal obligation

    As the owner of children’s play equipment to carry out and record regular inspection and routine maintenance. In the event of an accident, failure to have carried out these inspections, or to adequately record that the inspections have taken place, leaves you as the owner vulnerable to a successful claim for compensation.
