14.3 Play Area Inspection Offer

Rotherham Council offers Local Councils a play area inspection and maintenance service for the play areas that the Parish is responsible for. The Local Council, when entering into the Service Level Agreement will benefit from a fixed rate for the once per month visual play area inspections and the once every three-month maintenance inspections.

During the maintenance visits we will re grease accessible items when required and replace the odd bolt and cap if we have them at no further cost to the Local Council, however if parts are required to be ordered, the cost of these and any incurred labour costs would be quoted prior to the work being undertaken.

The Local Council will receive an electronic copy of the inspection report, and its findings, once per month. From these reports the Local Council can monitor the condition of the play equipment, allowing them to plan for required spend. Rotherham Council will also assist the Local Council where possible in gathering quotes and establishing/helping to locate suitable contractors, should work be required that is beyond Rotherham Council resources.
