Professional trampoline safety check - full inspection of springs, mat, frame, net, and padding. Minor fixes included, bigger issues reported. Peace of mind for parents.

When Did You Last Check?

Trampolines get used constantly but rarely inspected. Problems develop gradually - worn springs, torn mats, damaged nets. A proper check catches issues before accidents happen.

💡 Pro tip: Check after winter and after any storms. Cold weather stresses components, and wind can cause damage you don't immediately notice.

🔧 DIY Tips

Checking your trampoline yourself? Here's what to look for:

🔧 What you'll need

  • Socket set for frame bolts
  • Eyes and hands for inspection
  • Spring puller if replacing
  • Notepad for issues found

📐 Inspection points

  1. Each spring - rust, stretch, hooks
  2. Mat - tears, wear spots, stitching
  3. Frame - rust, bends, joint security
  4. Net - holes, brittleness, poles
  5. Padding - coverage, splits
  6. Ground anchors - still secure

⚠️ Warning signs

  • Rusty or stretched springs
  • Mat worn thin in centre
  • Frame joints loose
  • Net stiff or torn
  • Padding missing sections

💡 Pro trick: Bounce in the centre and listen. Unusual sounds, uneven bounce, or creaking suggests problems that need investigating.

Rather leave it to a pro? No problem - that's what I'm here for. Give me a call.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a trampoline safety check include?

Springs, mat, frame, legs, net, poles, padding, ground anchors - everything that affects safety. We check each component and report what's fine and what needs attention.

How often should trampolines be checked?

Start of season (spring) at minimum. More often with heavy use or after storms. They take a beating from weather and bouncing.

Will you fix problems found during the check?

Minor issues like loose bolts or small adjustments are included. Bigger repairs (spring replacement, net repair) are quoted separately so you can decide.

What happens if the trampoline isn't safe?

We'll tell you honestly. Some problems are fixable, some mean the trampoline's had its day. Better to know than to have an accident.
