For pavers and walls you must have a good base with proper drainage. Remember the brick layers law, one over two and two over one. To be quite honest, you need to go the book store and invest in in some good books. Tips just won't hack it if your trying to be professional. I looked at your web site and I have a word of caution for you about your "playground service". http://www.turftechs.com/tt/services/playground.cfm I manage a playground (private school) and there are lots of regulations about them. I'm unsure what New Jersey has as far as playground regulations, but I would suggest that you look into them. The materials that you use, rubber mulch and railroad ties are toxic and not rated for playground use in Washington state. Diamond edging is dangerous as is all cement edging. Treated lumber is also not rated for playground use. This is ofcourse for Washington state commercial/public playgrounds. Your advertising a safe playground, I would suggest that you go with the state aproved materials. If you built a playground and someone go hurt, you would be sued. - http://www.ywgc.com -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

My g/f's daughter fell off her 'schoolyard' ladder at the playground, they had macadam! Big no-no. This little gal wound up with seizures for many years, and wound up going from honor student to special classes. BUT, she now has plenty of money to buy her own home, car and go to college, AND just play the rest of her life, with no job! Be *very* careful, there, wether it's public or private.

I recently did a driveway addition with 'turfstone' pavers. This shows the overall job: http://www.turbinefun.com/articlePic...urfStone-1.jpg More details: http://www.turbinefun.com/MyTurbinePoweredBoat-3.asp |
