Service Terms
Swingset Service Terms and Agreement
By confirming appointment, you acknowledge install recommendations and agree to terms:
Site Selection
- Select a site in your yard that is level and free of rocks, stumps, tall grass, trees, sprinkler systems, pending, (poor water drainage), and/or protrusions from below or above (e.g. tree branch, wires, etc).
- Allow for a 6 foot safety zone around your entire play set. Keep this in mind when reviewing your play set dimensions.
- Homeowner is responsible for any issues resulting from a site selection that does not comply with recommendations listed in this document.
- Homeowner is responsible to obtain Homeowners Association approvals before service appointment (if applicable).
- Once installation begins, if the customer decides to have the swing set moved to a different location within the yard, there will be an extra charge.
- Note: Poor site selection can void your manufacturer warranty. If your site is not deemed safe or ideal (based upon recommendations above), we may opt not to conduct install.
Site Preparation
- Site preparation must be complete prior to your installation appointment.
- Our installation service includes ground leveling / digging up to 6 inches ONLY where the play set posts contact the ground. Any additional ground leveling or site preparation needed to install the swing set will result in additional charge.
- Up to 6 inches of ground leveling is sufficient for 90% of our customers. If you are not sure about how level your yard may be, please send picture(s) to service@swingsetservice.com, and note your name (and/or estimate#) for faster assistance.
- We do not install on yards that are freshly seeded or sodded. Homeowner will be held responsible for any damages if your swing set is installed in such an area. Homeowner is responsible for re-landscaping and re-seeding these areas at the customer’s expense.
