FAQ

The price of playground surfacing depends on several factors, including the type of material chosen, the size of the area, and any site preparation required. Generally, wood mulch is the most affordable option, followed by rubber mulch. Artificial turf and PIP Rubber or EPDM are premium options that offer higher durability and safety features, which reflect their higher cost. We recommend assessing your budget and safety needs to find the best fit for your project.

Yes, wood mulch is a safe and natural option for playground surfacing when installed correctly. It provides a soft landing and is commonly used for playgrounds in many communities. However, it may require more frequent maintenance, such as replenishing or raking, to maintain its safety and appearance. If you’re looking for a lower-cost option with decent safety features, wood mulch is a great choice.

The lifespan of your playground surfacing depends on the material chosen and how well it is maintained. Wood mulch typically needs to be replenished every 1-2 years. Rubber mulch is much more durable and can last 5-10 years with proper care. Artificial turf can last up to 15 years or more, depending on usage and maintenance. PIP Rubber or EPDM surfaces offer the longest lifespan, often lasting 15-20 years with minimal maintenance, making them ideal for high-traffic areas.

If you are working with a budget, wood mulch is typically the most affordable option. It provides a safe and natural look for playgrounds while being cost-effective. Rubber mulch is another great option for those seeking a balance between cost and durability, offering better longevity and safety at a slightly higher price point. Our team can help you assess your budget and requirements to choose the best surfacing option for your playground.

Artificial turf is an excellent option for playgrounds that see heavy use and require low maintenance. It provides a consistent, clean surface that doesn’t get muddy or worn down. However, it may be more expensive than other surfacing options like wood or rubber mulch. While it’s great for high-traffic areas, it might not be necessary for smaller or less-used playgrounds. Our experts can help you determine if it’s the right choice based on your playground’s usage and budget.
