About Anchoring and Leveling
A solid, level play set is a safer play set
Over time soil settles, rain washes out footings and legs sink. A swing set that leans or lifts when kids swing is a problem worth fixing.
We level the frame, set suitable anchors for your soil and structure, and re-check that swings hang evenly and the whole set is steady.
- Frame leveled and squared
- Anchors suited to your soil and structure
- Footings repaired or added
- A steadier, safer set
