Merc installed a playset that we ordered from a big online playset retailer. He did a fantastic job, in only a few hours. We got a couple of other quotes that were twice as much and a tenth of the reviews that Merc has. While some of them were able to match Merc's we went with him only because the amount of 5 star reviews he has. We were very pleased that we went with that decision. Merc was extremely punctual and professional. In fact, one of the pieces on the assembly was damaged, so he even helped order a new part that came on time. He really cares about delivering a high quality installation.

Tom showed up this morning on time and got right to it. It was cool to watch him build the set so effortlessly it seemed like. His experience with play-set assembly shows. I would recommend him for assembly needs.

I would recommend Merc highly. Showed up exactly on time, was very professional, assembled the playset meticulously and didn’t rush but somehow finish the work by himself in about five hours! He was also very professional in discussing my picky preferences about the exact dimensions where the place at should go compared to the perimeter of the yard.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
How long takes to build the item or if you have many pieces to build the price will drop for all day projects . Playscape just need to know the name of the playscape to give a quote. I work for 4 Assembly company as Ind. Contractor and I know how much they overcharge and will do the job way cheaper if you go Thur me . No brainer . Lol.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Getting as much info to set up a date.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
