- Custom swing sets

Chicago is known for its lakefront, its neighborhoods and its four distinct seasons. Yards here range from compact city lots to roomy suburban yards, and that is where a custom swing set or playground earns its keep.
Playgrounds in Chicago have to handle freeze and thaw cycles, snow and summer storms. Hot summers, hard winters, snow load and freeze and thaw cycles put a backyard playset through everything. Sturdy framing, good drainage, a winter care routine and a surface that handles frost help it last.
Whether you are planning a first backyard set, a ninja course for older kids or a play area for a school, church or HOA in Chicago, we start with a conversation and a look at your space. Call 833-353-PLAY or send the form to get started.
