What is a game court and what kind
of activities does a game court provide? |
| Game courts involve the whole family by offering multiple activities on a pad about
1/3 the size of a tennis court. Activities like basketball, short court tennis,
in-line hockey, pickle ball, volleyball, badminton and more. Depending on the size
of your court, you can play as many as 16 games! SnapSports game courts have developed
a suspended sports floor that installs directly over concrete. This modular system
absorbs much of the shock to knees and ankles, provides great traction and plays
much like a hardwood floor in a gymnasium. Playgrounds Unlimited is the exclusive dealer for
SnapSports in northern California. We provide design, consultation and complete
installation of concrete pad and components. |
|

What exactly is Rubber Bark? |
| Rubber Bark is a great alternative to wood mulch, wood bark, pea gravel, sand and
grass. Rubber Bark is recycled from California scrap tires. These tires are cut
up through a sequence of specialized tire recycling grinders using magnets to remove
all of the steel. The pieces are then color coated in a large mixer and packaged
for sale as Rubber Bark. |
|
How do animals like Rubber Bark? |
| Typically in a landscape or playground setting, animals don't tend to frequent the
areas specifically for depository, mainly because the product doesn't absorb their
scent. Also the texture of the product has proven to be disliked by animals and
rodents. Therefore, animals will not nest, root or defecate on the product. |
|
Does Rubber Bark blow away? |
| Rubber Bark does not tend to blow away. In fact at the right height a blower can
be used to remove dry leaves and debris. A windy day will have no effect on Rubber
Bark. |
|
Is Rubber Bark toxic? |
| Unlike some painted rubber products, Rubber Bark is non-toxic and is colored with
non-toxic paint. In the event of accidential ingestion, the chips will simply pass
through the digestive tract of humans or animals. |
|
What is poured-in-place safety surfacing? |
| Poured-in-place systems feature a granulated EPDM top coat which is a combination
of rubber and synthetic materials installed over a resilient basemat. This system
is mixed on site and poured over a concrete or base rock sub-strait using a urethane
mix as a binder to to hold the granules is tact. The product can be configured to
any shape or design. Poured-in-place pads offer a safe, clean surfacing option for
both residential and commercial applications with endless design capabilities. |
|
Can anyone install poured-in-place
rubber safety surfacing? |
| No. This system requires a professionally trained crew to mix and install the product.
Much like concrete, poured-in-place rubber surfacing is mixed and troweled to achieve
a smooth flat surface. Playgrounds Unlimited installs more poured-in-place pads in northern California
than any of its competitors. We also warehouse a large inventory of colors to service
our customers' needs promptly and efficiently. |
