Why Regular Playground Inspections Matter

Playgrounds are high-use environments, and small issues can quickly become safety concerns if they go unnoticed. Regular inspections help identify hazards early, reduce the risk of injuries, and support compliance with current safety standards.

All inspections are carried out by a Certified Playground Safety Inspector (CPSI) with hands-on experience designing, building and maintaining playgrounds. Inspections follow CSA Z614 requirements, with reference to ASTM standards where applicable.

Reports are practical, clearly written and focused on real-world safety and maintenance priorities — not generic checklists.

Surface Impact Testing

Impact attenuation testing measures how well playground surfacing performs under fall conditions.

Testing can help confirm compliance with safety standards, support insurance or audit requirements, and identify areas where surfacing depth or condition may need attention.

Surface testing is commonly requested for higher-risk play areas, older playgrounds, or where surfacing performance needs to be documented.
