### When Slides Go Wrong
Plastic cracks, bolts work loose, frames wobble. **A damaged slide isn't safe** - and it's often fixable for less than replacement cost.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** Check slides at the start of each season. Winter frost can crack plastic, and fixings loosen over time. A quick check prevents problems.

Frequently Asked Questions about Slide repair in Newton Abbot
What slide problems can be fixed?
Cracks and splits in plastic, loose bolts, wobbly frames, damaged edges that could catch. Some slides are beyond economical repair - we'll be honest if replacement makes more sense.
Can plastic slides be repaired?
Small cracks can sometimes be sealed. Larger damage or brittle plastic usually means replacement slide section. We'll assess and advise honestly.
Is it worth repairing or replacing?
Depends on the slide. A £50 fix on a £300 climbing frame makes sense. Spending £40 patching a £40 slide doesn't. We'll give you honest advice.
Can you check the whole frame while there?
Yes - if the slide is part of a climbing frame, we'll check other components too. Better to find problems before someone gets hurt.
