"North Hill Construction installed doors to our home office. Dana was very professional and kept us informed through the entire project. The quality of work in which Dana provides is outstanding and elite. He added more appeal and uniqueness to our home. If I could give 10 stars I would. If you are looking for a knowledgeable professional who does high level work, North HIll Construction is definitely the company you should use. We will definitely be using Dana and North Hill Construction again for future projects!"
Handymen Project
Bottom portion of plaster wall was once repaired with sheet of drywall. With no meaningful connection between drywall, drywall mud, and true plaster, the weight of the old plaster above, with nothing to hold onto, or to hold it, collapsed.

"I was not completely happy with them. As I was not happy with the work I felt that it was too expensive. I think that the price was pretty high but it was not something that I thought twice about. As it was a rental home I wasn’t told how the work was done and was told only next time when I had to have a repair made. When I went in there I saw the hole in the drywall in the bathroom and it was stuffed with newspaper which I would never do. So the way it was done was not professional. I think I could do a better job in fixing drywall hole. I thought I explained it really well with the dryer vents that I wanted to have it as short as possible. I wanted the hole where the hole comes out of the machine and instead it was a stackable washer and dryer with the dryer on top as it would be in the apartments and instead they had made the hole all the way the floor. So it made a very long dryer vent pipe which had risk of burning. I was not happy with that and the only thing was that it was done on time."

"I hired Alan to replace a badly deteriorated garage floor and to install a parking pad next to the garage off an alley. When he came to the site to give the estimate he also pointed out some failed mortar joints and significant stair-step cracking along the rear wall. In all, he and his crew repaired multiple sections of old mortar and replaced a rusty lintel; removed the old concrete garage floor; prepared the garage and exterior parking pad, removing dirt and a tree; formed up the new 18x18 garage floor and 20x20 parking pad, with a 4' apron; and poured the new concrete with appropriate finishes. I am absolutely thrilled with the finished product. Alan and his crew were a delight to work with. He clearly communicated changes in plans to work around weather and set expectations on scheduling and how long it would be before the concrete would be ready to be parked on. The site was left clean and neat at the end of each day, and the substantial, unavoidable disruption of the alley was repaired at the end of each day to make it presentable and drivable. No damage was done to my property or neighboring properties. I expected the initial estimate to be significantly higher, yet Alan committed to it, and the only small changes were due to additional work I requested while they were there. I could not be happier with how this project came together, and Alan was a delight to work with. I have several other smaller projects planned over the next few years and hope I'll be able to use him for those, as well!"

"I gave an A rating, despite some bumps on the scheduling. The A rating was earned by Danny and the work he did to get the various new light fixtures installed, both inside and outside. We have more fixtures to be installed, and we will have Danny back to finish the job."

FAQs for outdoor play equipment service projects in Richmond, VA

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.
