Every structure within the playground is carefully evaluated to identify potential hazards that could pose risks to children.

Our inspection includes reviewing:

• Structural stability of playground equipment
• Protrusions and sharp edges
• Entrapment and entanglement hazards
• Hardware condition and wear
• Guardrails, barriers, and protective components

This detailed inspection ensures playground equipment meets recognized safety practices and continues to function safely over time.

Falls are the leading cause of serious playground injuries, which is why surfacing performance must be verified.

PlayItSafe performs impact attenuation testing using specialized equipment designed to measure how well playground surfacing absorbs the force of a fall. Testing is conducted beneath equipment such as swings, slides, and climbers to ensure surfaces provide adequate fall protection.

This testing helps verify compliance with ASTM playground safety standards and California playground safety requirements, while providing documented proof that the surface is capable of reducing the risk of severe head injuries.

Following the inspection, clients receive a detailed inspection report outlining all findings and recommendations.

This report provides:

• Documented safety observations
• Photographs of identified hazards
• Corrective action recommendations
• Compliance documentation for risk management

Clear documentation demonstrates that the playground has been professionally evaluated and that proactive steps are being taken to maintain safety.
