Thickness plan first
Each component’s fall height sets the PIP depth below it.
Service Area · Clairemont
Clairemont has many schools, parks, HOAs and apartment communities with play areas that eventually need repair, resurfacing or replacement. We plan the surfacing and the equipment work together.

Quick Answer
Clairemont is part of the San Diego area we serve. Many projects here start with an existing play area: worn surfacing, equipment being replaced, or a layout change that means the surfacing has to change too.
Clairemont, also called Clairemont Mesa, is bounded by Interstate 805 to the east, Interstate 5 to the west, State Route 52 to the north and Linda Vista to the south. It is a large residential community, so play areas at schools, parks, HOAs and apartment complexes make up much of the work.

Repair or Replace?
The condition of the surface and the base decides which makes sense.
| What we find | What it usually means | Typical approach |
|---|---|---|
| Small damaged areas | The rest of the surface is sound | Spot repair |
| Worn top layer across the surface | Wear, sun exposure and traffic over a sound base | Resurfacing |
| Cracking, soft spots or ponding | A problem with the base or drainage | Base repair and new surfacing |
| New equipment or layout | Use zones and fall heights have changed | New thickness plan and surfacing |
We inspect the surface and the base before recommending any of these.
Equipment & Surfacing
Surfacing depends on what stands on it, so we plan both together.
New equipment
Each component’s fall height sets the PIP depth below it.
Existing equipment
Worn PIP around equipment that is staying can often be resurfaced.
Open areas
Artificial grass suits the open space around the equipment.
Entrances
Paths from the gate or building to the play area.
Our Process
Our standard process, starting with an inspection of what is there.
01
We learn what is wrong with the current play area and whether the equipment is changing.
02
We inspect the existing surface and base and measure the use zones.
03
We recommend repair, resurfacing or replacement and send a written estimate.
04
Damaged material is removed as needed and the new surface installed.
05
We review the finished play area and explain inspection and cleaning.
Timing depends on removal, base condition, equipment work, weather and cure time. See our process
