St Mary’s School in Hampstead commissioned Setter Play to remove and dispose of their existing climber which was condemned, and to come up with an exciting new design that would be fitting of their lovely grounds.
They loved our play castle design, with multiple levels and platforms, lovely historic theming, and a wide range of activities for their pupils to enjoy. We made sure to include different levels of challenge, so that everybody could join in the fun.
The castle was packed with role-play features too, along with benches below decks to encourage socialising.
The project was complete with a complete resurface of their play area in artificial grass, along with the bonded rubber mulch safety surfacing beneath the castle.
Outstanding from start to finish – the best contractor I have worked with in 20 years!
Setterplay has hands-down been the best company I have worked with in my nearly 20 years in property management. We contacted several companies to design and install a new climbing frame for our school (the St Mary’s Castle project), and Setterplay stood out at every single stage of the process.
The design phase with Georgie was exceptional. She was polite, kind, and incredibly professional. What blew me away was her attention to detail; she noticed that some of our children liked sitting on the floor under our old frame, so she proactively included custom seating underneath it in her design. She truly listened to what we wanted as a school and delivered a first draft that exceeded our expectations.
The installation teams were equally fantastic. Mike and John started on day one and worked quickly and effectively. They were polite, highly professional, and always happy to answer questions and share their knowledge. They are genuinely some of the best contractors I have ever encountered. The surfacing team, who had the massive job of resurfacing the entire playground, were also incredibly polite and professional.
Behind the scenes, Jacqui in the office made the entire administrative process seamless. Even when we threw a last-minute change her way, she handled it with ease. She was always happy, helpful, and patient, no matter how many times a day I called.
From the initial phone call to the moment the last team drove out of our gates, Setterplay did not disappoint. We are already getting a quote from them to update another part of our playground, and I cannot recommend them highly enough!
