Des Moines is known for its neighborly feel and big skies. Yards here are flat and roomy, and that is where a custom swing set or playground earns its keep.

Playgrounds in Des Moines 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 Des Moines, we start with a conversation and a look at your space. Call 833-353-PLAY or send the form to get started.

Questions

Swing sets in Des Moines

Do you build custom swing sets in Des Moines?

Yes. We design and build custom swing sets, playsets, treehouses and themed playgrounds in Des Moines and the surrounding area. Call 833-353-PLAY or send the form to start.

What materials work best for a swing set in Des Moines?

Cedar and redwood work well when sealed, and strong framing handles snow load. Pressure-treated lumber is a common budget choice. Tighten hardware after the first cold snap.

What should go under a playset in Des Moines?

Engineered wood fiber is a popular choice and rubber mulch resists frost. Make sure water drains away from the set so the base does not heave.
