"David was very responsive and returned my call promptly. Lumber has been in short supply due to the coronavirus, but he checked around to find the proper sized lumber that was needed. He and son son did a great job. If there was any change in appointment times, he always checked with me."

"My air conditioning had gone out and I was afraid it was going to cost me an arm and a leg to fix.  I looked up places on Angie's List and found Alexanders.  They were great.  Saw me right away when I came in, look at the car, found the problem, even had to order a part but I was out the door in less than 2 hours.  And was very pleasantly suprised it was not as bad as I thought.  They are very professional, friendly & honest and I will definitely go back the next time I have a repair!"

"Paul and his crew were highly professional, on time everyday and were pleasant to work with. They did a tremendous job in delivering a top notch paint job, executed in the detail work and went above and beyond our expectations. We had a tight timeline and Paul pulled in extra support to meet it. I have not been this impressed with any other contractor I have used and would highly recommend them!!!"

"Andy is a joy to work with.  He's a very skillful carpenter.
It's a joy to be able to have complete access to the shelves in pantry -- no more trying to force the doors open.
In the past Andy has installed crown molding in my dining room (to match molding in living room); has installed beadboard in the  eat-in kitchen area, and other miscellaneous projects  -- all perfectly done.

FAQs for outdoor play equipment service projects in Indianapolis, IN

Most big-box home improvement stores carry swing sets and playsets, and major online retailers ship kits directly to your door. Outdoor furniture stores sometimes stock smaller sets, while specialty playground dealers offer high-end or custom options. If you’d rather keep it local, consider asking a trusted handy person or carpenter—many professionals can order prefab kits at wholesale prices or design a custom build that fits your yard and budget.

When shopping for a swing set for toddlers, pick a model that keeps the fun close to the ground—no high platforms or open ladders. Choose bucket-style swings with built-in safety brackets or seat belts, and confirm the model carries a recognized safety rating. Double-check the weight limits to ensure the swing can accommodate your child for several seasons, and consider adding a soft surface beneath it for added protection. When in doubt, ask the retailer or installer which toddler-friendly features they recommend.

Home-use wooden or metal playsets often last eight to 10 years, but regular maintenance can extend their lifespan to 15 years. Seal wood regularly to prevent moisture from entering, and sand or repaint metal parts before rust has a chance to form. Inspect hardware every season and tighten bolts as needed. Commercial-grade sets come with longer warranties—often 25 years or more—but they’re built for heavier traffic than a typical backyard sees. Staying on top of minor repairs is the easiest way to keep any set safe and sturdy.

Most playground repairs run $280 to $520, so build a repair fund into your long-term maintenance budget. Costs increase when large parts, such as a slide or beam, need to be swapped, but quick fixes, like tightening hardware, remain on the lower end. Setting money aside up front allows you to tackle issues right away, keeps the set safe, and helps you maximize every year of use from your investment.

It’s essential to anchor every playset. Securing the legs with stakes, concrete footings, or anchor kits keeps the structure from rocking, shifting, or tipping in high winds or rough play. A solid anchor also reduces wear at key joints, helping the set last longer. If you’re unsure which method works for your yard, ask the installer or follow the manufacturer’s guidelines. Skipping this step puts both the equipment and your kids at risk.
