Location
Crediton
Garden games assembled and set up properly so you can actually use them. I put together whatever you've bought, position it sensibly in your garden, and make sure it's safe - especially important for anything the kids will be whacking balls at.
Stop Staring At The Boxes
Bought garden games with good intentions? Swingball still in the garage, croquet set unopened, badminton net in its packaging?
Summer's happening right now. Kids are inside on screens. The garden's sitting there empty.
Those games aren't assembling themselves.
💡 Pro tip: Garden games actually get used if they're ready to grab. Stuff that needs 20 minutes setup each time just stays in the shed.
Why Get Someone Else To Do It?
Fair question. Here's why people call me:
| ✅ Done Properly | ❌ DIY Struggle |
|---|---|
| Swingball actually stable when hit | Falls over after three whacks |
| Net at regulation height, properly tensioned | Sagging net, posts wonky |
| Croquet hoops level and correct spacing | Random placement, bent hoops |
| Safe positioning (away from windows, fences) | Ball through greenhouse week one |

What to Expect
Step 1: Planning
Quick chat about what you've got and where it should go. Some games need flat ground, some need space from windows, some need lawn vs paving. I'll position things sensibly.
Step 2: Assembly
Each game gets put together properly. Poles secured, nets tensioned right, hoops positioned correctly. Not just "good enough" - actually good.
Step 3: Testing
Everything gets checked. I'll give the swingball a whack to make sure it's stable, check net heights, test anything that needs testing. You'll know it's safe before I leave.

Good to Know
> ☀️ **Party coming up?** Book me for the day before. Garden games set up properly, positioned well, tested and ready. One less thing to stress about on the day. **Multiple kids' parties?** Worth setting up games to be semi-permanent for summer if you've got lawn space. Croquet hoops can stay in, swingball base can stay positioned - just store the poles when not needed. **Renting or temporary?** I'll set things up to be easily removable. No permanent ground fixings unless you own the place and want them.
Frequently Asked Questions about Garden games setup in Crediton
What kind of games can you set up?
Pretty much anything - swingball, croquet sets, badminton/volleyball nets, giant Jenga, cornhole boards, quoits sets, archery targets (safe setups only). Basically anything that needs assembling or positioning properly in your garden.
Do I need to buy the games myself?
Usually yes - I set up what you've bought. But if you want advice on what's good for your garden size or what'll actually get used, I'm happy to suggest before you spend money. Some games need more space than people think.
Can you make them permanent or do they need packing away?
Your choice. Swingball I'd usually set up to be moveable. Badminton nets too. But croquet hoops can go in semi-permanently if you've got the lawn space. I'll set it up however you want to use it - quick pack-away or leave it out all summer.
How long does a typical setup take?
Single game like swingball or croquet? Usually an hour or less. Multiple games or something that needs ground fixing properly? Longer. Most people want 2-3 games sorted in one visit, which is about 1.5 hours total.
What about games for a party?
That's actually perfect timing to get me in. Set up cornhole, giant Jenga, croquet, whatever you've got planned, all positioned sensibly around the garden. Much better than frantically assembling swingball while guests arrive.
