Maintenance

Playground safety surfacing maintenance One of the questions most commonly asked is why do I need a maintenance program on my poured in place surfacing? The quick answer is that a good maintenance program is guaranteed to extend the life of your surfacing, thereby protecting your investment. Your surface looks new and clean, and stays protected against the sun’s destructive UV rays. Moreover, tears and cracks in the surface could result in falls and injuries. To help keep your kids safe and your surface in excellent condition, we offer maintenance options to fit everyone’s needs.

The number one choice we recommend for all poured in place surfaces over a year old is the Roll Coat Application. It rolls on clear, strengthening and bonding the top layer EPDM granules.  This will give your rubber surface a longer life span and also protect the pad against UV rays.
