Behind-the-Scenes: What It’s Like Working with Carolina Recreation & Design

When it comes to designing and building recreational spaces, Carolina Recreation & Design is here to make the process as seamless as possible. From initial ideas to that final “ready to play” moment, our team of experts will guide you through each step with personalized care and expertise. Let’s dive into how easy and enjoyable it can be to create a custom playground or recreational project with us!

Step One: Exploring Your Vision Together

Our journey starts with an in-person consultation, where you’ll meet one of our friendly and knowledgeable playground consultants. Together, you’ll walk through design ideas, layout possibilities, and site-specific logistics to ensure the project aligns with your vision and unique needs. Our consultants are here to answer every question and provide a clear overview of age-appropriate play options, safety surfacing, accessibility features, equipment capacity, budget considerations, and availability. By the end of this meeting, you’ll have a strong foundation to make confident decisions for your space.

Step Two: Designing and Finalizing Your Dream Space

Once we’ve gathered all the essential information, our design team brings your vision to life. We create custom plans and layouts that capture your priorities, complete with 2D and 3D renderings of proposed equipment and surfacing. Our proposals are highly detailed, including color options, specifications, warranty information, and pricing. We’re committed to a collaborative process, so we encourage you to take your time in reviewing the designs and suggest any adjustments. When you’re ready, a signed quote and final color selections allow us to start production on your chosen materials, making it easy to move forward.

Step Three: Installation, Walk-through, and Ready to Play!

With your project moving full steam ahead, we handle all aspects of planning and installation. Our team of CPSI-certified crew leaders and experienced project managers ensure a clean, safe, and well-organized job site from start to finish, adhering to all ASTM and CPSC standards. Once installation is complete, we walk you through every detail of the finished space, providing all necessary manuals, maintenance checklists, and even spare parts to keep your new recreational area in top condition. We address any last-minute details during this final walkthrough, ensuring everything is just right for your needs.
