Quick Answer
Do you serve Logan Heights?
Yes. Logan Heights is within our San Diego County service area. We help schools, parks and community organizations decide which surface belongs where on a small site, then install it: PIP under and around equipment, turf for running and open play, and porous rubber for paths.
Logan Heights is an urban neighborhood in central San Diego, bounded by Interstate 5 to the south and west, Interstate 15 to the east and Imperial Avenue to the north, and part of the city’s Southeastern planning area. On a compact lot, each part of a play space has a job, so the surface plan matters as much as the equipment.

PIP or Turf?
Choosing between PIP and turf for a play area.
Both show up on school and park sites. The deciding factor is what children do on that part of the site.
| Question | Poured-in-place rubber | Artificial grass |
|---|---|---|
| Under play equipment | The standard choice: cushion depth matched to each component’s critical fall height | Turf for play areas uses padding, specified per site |
| Running games | Firm, seamless surface | Lawn surface for open play |
| Colors and graphics | Colored EPDM, with games and logos possible | Green lawn look |
| Upkeep | Cleaning, a yearly inspection and early repairs | Care guidance on our artificial grass pages |
The two can be combined on one site. Turf for playgrounds.
