Designing Sport Courts

Two of the most popular installations we do are for macadam and polymeric sport pitches. Macadam can be used for tennis, netball, basketball and multi-purpose activities, you can also use them for playground surfaces. Polymeric rubber is also commonly used for these sports as well as multi-use games areas with a range of sports court designs. Artificial clay courts have started being installed more for tennis facilities; this is because people can use them to a high standard but without all the heavy maintenance which natural clay courts require.

Needlepunch surfaces are used for organisations which want an all-round MUGA facility. 2G sand surfacing is installed for hockey, tennis, netball and football facilities. Hockey can be played to a high standard on 2G surfacing. The last type of flooring which we offer is 3G; this is similar to natural grass, which is why you will find it at football and rugby organisations. Our professional installers carry out many projects with these surface types each year, if you’d like to find out more about costs please fill in the enquiry form on this page for a quote.

We are able to install and carry out maintenance on all of these surfaces across the UK. As a specialist contractor we have a team of professionals who complete projects to a very high standard and quality. As we have a lot of experience gained from completing jobs across the country, if you need guidance choosing from our sports court designs, this is another service which we can assist you with.

Our team are experts when it comes to the design of sports courts and we can offer expert advice regarding the best surface and colours for you to make use of when installing the facilities. If you would like information on the designs available, please get in touch using the enquiry form available.

Sports Surface Paint Design

For the various different projects we complete, sports surface paint design is an option to have and most clients choose it for aesthetics and safety reasons. This is only done on hard courts, such as macadam and polymeric to add anti slip qualities and a coloured design.

There is a wide selection of colours to choose from, having your sports pitch painted can make it stand out, look unique and make it more personal to your facility. The most popular paint colours we install are red, green, blue and purple but we have many more different shades of colours as well. A lot of organisations choose colours that match their logo and house style and some also select more than one colour for a two tone design.

Sports surface paint design is not only visually appealing, it can also improve playing and performance qualities because it has anti-slip properties. Some old sports courts need to be sprayed again if they have lost their slip resistant qualities, when they are painted it can restore the surface and make it look great and new again. Once the new paint coating has been applied onto courts, we recommend that line markings are re-applied. This is because you won’t be able to see the old ones over the paint and it is important to have markings of surfaces to show which sports can be played and also clearly show the rules and points system.

As leading UK sport surfacing contractors we can offer competitive quotes for our work as well as references and case studies of our previous installations. Don’t hesitate to contact us for and idea of costs and sports court designs by filling in our contact form today!

Wet Pour Construction

Posted on May 23, 2024 by Elliot

A variety of colours and graphic designs can be installed within the wetpour surfacing to create a bespoke play area surface which is unique to the particular school, nursery or public recreational area.

Get a Free Quote

We aim to keep the costs of the installation as low as possible. However since we only make use of premium materials there may be cheaper contractors out there, although they might not be able to offer the same quality installations as we can offer.

You’ll need to consider a number of factors during the wetpour construction planning. Most sports and play surfaces require a well draining sub base and it is therefore key to determine how and what your specific site requirements are. Wetpour safety surfacing is a porous system and we need to lay it onto a free draining sub base.

The surfacing of the wetpour construction consists of a two tier system. This begins with an SBR rubber base course which provides the impact absorption and can come in a range of depths. The depth of rubber which is installed will depend on the Critical Fall Height requirements of any equipment in the playground.

The wearing course layer comes in either black or colour EPDM rubber crumb. We’ll mix this together with a polyurethane binder and screed it onto the playground surface. To find out more about the specification and costs for installing wetpour, contact us now. You can simply fill in the enquiry form on this page, we’d love to hear from you.

Wetpour Groundworks Sub Base

There are various wetpour groundworks sub base specifications for playground safety surfacing. These fits in with most budgets and we can provide the full works. This includes ground excavation, sub base, play equipment and laying the safety surfacing.

The various groundworks specifications are as follows:

Compacted MOT Type 1 sub base with perimeter edges
Open textured macadam with perimeter edges
No-fines concrete with perimeter edges.

We can help you through the whole process when designing your wet pour project. Our team will ensure you get the perfect playground surface for your needs.

You can also choose some rubber graphics to create a fun and stimulating environment.

Wetpour Two Tier System

The wet pour flooring is in a two-tier system, the first layer in the method will be the SRB shock mat. This shockpad layer protects children by absorbing impact from falls.

The next tier will be the wetpour rubber crumb wearing course layer which we install on top of the shock pad. This epdm top coating is available in a wide range of different colours and designs.

Our experienced installers mix the finest rubber granules with a premium binder. This creates a seamless surface which can be laid in a variety of different designs.

Wetpour is becoming more and more popular across the United Kingdom. We are the experts when it comes to installing wet pour surfaces.

Play Area Surfaces

Posted on May 23, 2024 by Elliot

The wide variety of play area surfaces that we specialise in can range between many different purposes for children of all ages at nurseries, schools and public recreational parks. One of the most common NBS surface specifications that is chosen by clients in the UK is wetpour rubber safety flooring.

This consists of two layers of rubber: an SBR base layer which acts as a shockpad for safety, and an EPDM wearing course layer which gives the surfacing its colour. Many different design options are available with wet pour play-area surfaces. We can create bespoke colour schemes and graphics for each playground surfacing project.

Play Area Flooring Specialists

Some outdoor playgrounds in more rural areas with trees and natural grass can also have safety surfacing. These can come in different surface types which are in keeping with the natural environment. These can include rubber mats which fit onto existing grass areas and allow the natural grass to grow through. This therefore disguises the look of rubber and keeps a natural appearance.

Rubber mulch play-area surfaces can also be installed to these natural areas to cover up any muddy patches and create pathways around equipment like timber activity trails. We can install this product for a garden play area surface as well. Details of this specification could be found by clicking here.

Each of these surfacing types will vary in price and is dependent on the design, location and area size of the project. A member of staff will be happy to discuss a quote with you so please fill in our quick contact form to get in contact with our play area flooring specialists.

We can provide more information on the best surface for play area flooring if necessary, so make certain to get in touch and we will respond right away. We shall also answer any questions about play area surfaces and can provide free quotations.

Recreational Playground Surfacing

It’s important to provide a safe and impact resistant area for kids to play which meets BS EN 1177 safety standards. You should also ensure that recreational playground surfacing creates a fun and educational environment. This will then encourage children’s active learning outside the classroom. In order to do this, our play-area surfaces are available with a range of different coloured graphic designs. These give children of all ages fun activities to take part in outside the classroom.

The graphics that we install for these rubber play area surface designs start with colourful cartoons and animals that nursery age children can interact with. They also include number grids, maps and word games which older children can use to support their education.

These bright and colourful designs can go within wetpour rubber surfacing or as thermoplastic markings. The thermoplastic is heat applied onto an existing macadam play-area surface. The wet pour graphics are preformed and placed onto the playground during installation. Therefore we can apply the main body of the play area covering around them. Many schools and nurseries choose to install colourful graphics onto a black wet pour background. However you can have the full recreational playground surfacing in one bright colour.

Thermoplastic play markings are applied by laying out plastic which has been cut into the required shapes and then melting the plastic so it sticks onto the macadam. This creates a durable and long lasting surface design which is resistant against heavy use and UV exposure.

Playground Surface Options

There are a number of playground surfacing options available including wet pour, rubber mulch, artificial grass and needlepunch. If you’re looking for a bright vibrant play-area you may want to think about having wetpour or needlepunch activity surfacing laid. We can install these in various colours to make a bright, enjoyable area for kids to play in. We could lay EPDM rubber in different depths to meet up to certain Critical Fall Heights. Similarly we can lay needlepunch over a shockpad to create similar impact absorbing qualities.

If you are thinking about having a more natural looking playground surfacing laid, you may want to consider rubber mulch or synthetic turf. We can apply shockpads beneath artificial grass to add impact absorbing properties. We can also lay rubber mulch in different depths like wet pour. All of our surface options are permeable which means they are suitable in all weather conditions.

Play Area Surfacing Installation

If you are wondering about the play area surfacing installation process, we offer you the best services. This is because we have years of experience in the industry and also make use of premium materials. The installation of play surfaces involves excavating the existing surface, laying a geotextile membrane and stoning up to the required depths. We use the geotextile membrane to prevent weeds from growing through the surface.

After the sub base has been installed the surfacing of your choice can be laid. For rubber mulch and wet pour you will need to make sure you install the correct levels. For needlepunch and artificial grass, all that needs to be done is to simply lay the carpet. It totally depends on which kind of playground flooring you would like to have. Nevertheless we can make sure we work around what you need.

Play Area Maintenance

Posted on May 23, 2024 by Elliot

The playground surfaces which we install are wetpour, rubber mulch and grass mats, these surfaces all meet the BS EN 1177 playground safety standards. There are two types of play area maintenance, proactive and reactive. Proactive cleaning is something which you do to prevent serious damages occurring and reactive maintenance is something which is done when you need to repair the surface and fix any issues.

Contaminated Playground Surface

If your wet pour surfacing has leaves, weeds and other dirt on the surface, it should be removed as soon as possible. This is because it can cause contamination to block the drainage system. To prevent this you should brush the wetpour and give a light jet wash or a hose down to remove any dirt. For the process of maintaining rubber mulch, the plan should consist of a light jet wash, a brush and the occasional top up of the rubber.

If you’ve got a rubber mulch surface which is in need of repairs, click here – http://softsurfaces.co.uk/rubber-mulch-repair-kit/ to find out more information on this. Grass mats are very simple to look after, we just suggest you look out for any damages or uplift of the mats.

If you have contaminations on your playground surface, it is vital to get this sorted as soon as possible. If you do not treat the surface when contaminated, more problems could occur and the area could lose porosity. Our team can completely revitalise the area and can provide a moss and algae treatment to prevent contamination growing back.

How to Maintain Playgrounds

You should maintain playgrounds regularly to ensure the surface is safe for young children. Our experts can carry out playground inspections to look for any problems within the surface and we shall let you know how to fix these issues. Our specialists will also carry out cleaning and moss treatment to keep the area in good condition. We also offer advice and information on how you can carry out maintenance to look after your playground.

Once cleaning and inspections have been carried out, it is a good idea to fix any damages on the surface to ensure they do not result in worse problems. If you leave the problems to develop further, you may be facing even more costly repairs such as resurfacing.

Playground Flooring Repairs

If any damages occur then reactive play area maintenance should be taken at the first convenience, this is because if you leave it even longer then you could find yourself needing more playground flooring repairs, which can be costly and the defects could pose a health and safety risk.

As play areas are often open to the public they can have a heavy amount of use and vandalism can happen. Normally the type of vandalism we see on wetpour is chewing gum marks and stains, we can easily remove these. Bonded rubber mulch can come loose and some children will find it fun to pick at it and make it worse, this means that an infill will be required. If grass mats become loose and lift up they are a trip hazard and require attention straight away. We offer repair kits for small jobs you can do yourself, this is common for wetpour where small cracks can appear.

As wet pour is made of EPDM rubber, when the ground has been there for a while, the perimeter can shrink. This is when our professionals will come out and fix the perimeter by removing the edging and replacing it with new rubber crumb.

Playground flooring repairs are necessary for many reasons. They will remove any health and safety hazards that can become worse without attention. If you’ve got a play area surface which is in need of maintenance or repairs we can offer help. Please get in touch with us through our enquiry form and we’ll be able to offer advice on costs for the work.

Wetpour Perimeter Repair

A playground may begin to reduce in size all-around the edges with time. Leading to the border diminishing from the border, producing breaks all around the outside of the facility. This could certainly turn into a safety hazard for children so you should to take care of the problem right away.

Additionally not addressing the issues quickly can cause more severe problems making repairs much more costly. We provide wetpour perimeter repair therefore we can come to your location and then fill up the gaps with more EPDM wetpour.

If you’d like to do it yourself, we can sell you a DIY repair kit that contains rubber as well as binder. This can make it much more cost effective as you can complete the repair in your own time. There is no need to pay for our team to travel out to site and do it for you.

To stop these issues coming up, setting up a wetpour maintenance plan is critical. They will help make sure your facility increases in quality as time goes by.

Educational Play Designs

Posted on May 23, 2024 by Elliot

Outdoor play surfaces at nurseries often have vibrant and engaging coloured characters, animals and shapes which allow very young children to take part in interactive play with others. For older children at primary schools, the school playground flooring designs usually have educational activities like maths grids, compasses, word games and geographical maps. These help children to learn core curriculum subjects through physical and active play outside the classroom.

Find Out More

Having these sorts of markings is often very beneficial for children who might find classroom learning challenging sometimes. The range of available colours and designs is almost endless as we may also create unique graphics and logos. You can choose these to fit in with a particular theme that your school or nursery has.

Wetpour safety surfaces are popular at schools and nurseries because the NBS specification is made up of an SBR base layer to absorb impact and an EPDM wearing course layer which gives the surface its colour. Play area graphic designs for this type of flooring can be created to meet the bespoke requirements of each individual nursery, school or public recreational facility.

Costs for each different surface type and design will change from project to project so please fill in our quick enquiry form to discuss quotes with a member of staff.

Playground Surface Graphics

As well as wetpour rubber recreational surfaces, tarmacadam is also great for schools and parks. Playground surface graphics are also available for this flooring type. The macadam specification is a strong and durable surfacing option that is great for playing numerous sports and activities. This is why it’s popular at many schools in the UK. Coloured play area markings could be applied to macadam play areas in either thermoplastic or specialist paint.

Contact Our Team

The thermoplastic graphics are cut out into the chosen shapes prior to the installation. We will then apply them with heat so they melt onto the tarmac leaving a colourful and durable graphic marking on the playground. We can also apply specialist paint to a macadam playground surface with a brush or roller. This creates multi-coloured markings for sports and other games. To find out more about the macadam playground surfacing, visit this page – http://softsurfaces.co.uk/tarmacadam-specification/ which describes the product in more detail.

Rubber Mulch Construction

Posted on May 23, 2024 by Elliot

Bonded Rubber mulch construction is often carried out as this is an ideal safety surface for parks, gardens and playgrounds. The special attributes and installation of this type of surface allows for high absorption of impacts reducing the risk of injuries to children playing on the surface.

Rubber Mulch Depth for Playground

Bound rubber mulch construction goes onto a special geotextile sheet with a base layer and the specialist rubber mulch wearing course. Our 40mm system is the most popular rubber mulch depth for playground surfaces and meets all the safety requirements. Thicker depths are applied on playgrounds containing play equipment to add extra safety qualities.

These could be things like swings, slides, climbing frames and activity trails which are all common in children’s play areas. The right thickness of bonded mulch would be quantified and applied according to Critical Fall High guidelines of the equipment placed on the playground. We do this to reduce the risk of permanent injuries due to head impacts in case of a fall or a trip.

It will not blow away and it can go onto any surface, with minimum preparation. To increase the performance and longevity of your surfacing we would advise the installation of a formal sub base. It still allows water to drain through to moisturise the soil with prevention of flooding and creation of muddy puddles, allowing the users to enjoy the benefits of the surface all year round, assuming the existing ground is free draining and self-supporting. The rubber mulch specification can also be laid to help minimise existing muddy areas (with Ground Preparation) or natural grass surfaces which may be unsafe for use by children in the area.

Feel free to get in touch with our team today for more details on installing this type of safety surface. As a top UK contractor, we have worked with many schools and local authorities. We aim to keep playgrounds and public areas safe for everyone using them. Please take a moment to complete our enquiry form if you’d like to ask any questions about what we do. You can also receive a quote for a project you’re looking to have.

Rubber Bark Surface Installation

The main advantage of rubber bark surface installations is that the process doesn’t require a vast amount of preparation to the groundworks. To increase the performance and longevity of your surfacing we would advise the installation of a formal sub base.

The rubber bark shred is a self-supporting system and can be applied directly onto grass or soil, old tiles, wetpour flooring, crushed aggregate or concrete. We offer no guarantee as to the performance of any existing sub base of its suitability. The surface design means it will follow the natural contours of the ground moulding around any minor groves and folds. Our trusted teams of installers will carry out the rubber bark surface installation.

Our employees are provided with regular training sessions. They also undertake regular performance checks to maintain a high quality of the Soft Surfaces Ltd installations. We strongly ensure compliance with Health and Safety regulations and amongst other memberships we are also certified by the Association of Play Industries (API).

Benefits of Commercial Resin Bound Paving

There are numerous benefits to using commercial resin bound paving for your business or public building needs. The most obvious of these is that resin bound paving looks great.

You can install it in a variety of colours and styles. What’s more, it’s flexible to your needs. Unlike concrete and macadam, it’s much more versatile, making it the perfect asset to any bespoke paving or custom surfacing design project.

People will also love resin bound gravel for the porous qualities. With traditional outdoor surfacing, you are at risk of water pooling and damage.

Water is certainly a big factor in causing this type of damage. However, with a porous resin bound system, you can be sure that there’s zero chance of water pooling on the surface.

Decorative Paving Designs

Another great reason for choosing resin bound gravel for commercial purposes is for the decorative paving options available.

If you want to create a bright, cheerful look for a school playground, for example, you might choose resin bound gravel for its different possibilities.

Decorative paving is also a great choice for many public buildings. If you want your business or premises to stand out from the pack in the best way, why not go fully decorative? It’s a great idea to think about using decorative surfacing if you want to create the best first impressions.

Of course, as a business owner, the first thing you are going to want to do is make those first impressions count!

Why go with the flock and choose paving designs that are well-worn and are – quite frankly – boring? Dare to be different. Let us know what you are looking for from your commercial surfacing and paving, and we will be sure to set up a bespoke plan of action.

Porous Stone Surfacing for Public Areas

Porous stone surfacing for public areas should, in our opinion, become a matter of absolute need, not a choice. Non-porous stone can cause water to pool and flood easily. When this happens, material such as stone and concrete can start to degrade.

Therefore, with commercial resin bound gravel, you have immediate protection against water and other potential weather damage. It is perfect for public areas in the name of durability as well as in the name of safety. It’s not just ideal for residential or everyday business design use. It’s a safe, bright and cost-effective option for years to come.

Macadam Surfacing Designs

The process of installing tarmacadam surfaces will usually go as follows:

Firstly a stone sub base will be rolled onto the surfacing, there must be small gaps in the stone to make the ground porous. The sub base chosen depends on what the surface will be used for.
The sub base will be evenly spread across the existing area and compacted down.
Next, macadam stone is mixed with tar and poured onto the prepared base.
Once the tarmac sets and cures, we’ll need to allow a few weeks for the oils to vaporise.
Then we’ll apply a colour coating to the whole area if desired, alternatively we’ll just apply sport line markings.
For a playground, we can apply thermoplastic markings in a variety of colourful shapes.

We can customise the macadam surfacing designs can be unique and to meet your specification. It is now becoming more popular to install these designs at locations across the UK. This is because there are a wide range of colours available and it can make dull areas brighten up. We also offer school playground graphic designs with educational shapes and games.

Macadam surfacing designs can make a facility or organisation quickly renovate and revitalise their existing dark surfacing and it is a cheaper option. As well as installing colourful tarmac, we can re-colour existing macadam surfaces either to their original colour or add new designs. This can make an old worn out surface look new and fresh and in a simple process.

Playgrounds and schools have had thermoplastic macadam designs installed onto their surfaces, this could be for education reasons and because they also add fun activities for children to play. These types of designs are quick and easy ways to refurbish macadam surfaces and improve the look of your facilities surface.
