Professional trampoline spring replacement - worn, rusty, or stretched springs replaced with correct tension. Proper bounce restored safely.
Springs Wear Out
Constant stretching, weather exposure, UV damage. Springs lose tension over time - the bounce goes flat, and eventually they break.
💡 Pro tip: If the trampoline bounces unevenly, check springs on the flat side. Replacing in pairs (opposite sides) keeps tension balanced.

Good to Know
⚠️ Don't ignore worn springs - a broken spring mid-bounce can cause injury. The gap where the spring was is also a catch hazard for feet and ankles.
Signs to replace:
- Visible rust
- Stretched (hook barely catches)
- Hooks worn thin
- Bounce feels flat
- Uneven bounce

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if springs need replacing?
Rusty, stretched (lost tension), or broken springs need replacing. If the bounce feels uneven or flat, springs are usually the cause.
Do all springs need replacing or just the bad ones?
Replace in pairs at minimum (opposite sides) for even tension. If many are worn, a full set makes more sense for consistent bounce.
What size springs do I need?
Depends on your trampoline. Tell us the brand and size, or we can measure existing springs. Springs aren't universal.
Is it dangerous to replace springs?
Springs are under tension - they can ping off and cause injury. Spring pullers make it safer. We have the right tools and technique.
