Suitability Guide

We want your inflatable hire to be safe and hassle-free! This guide will help you determine if your garden is suitable for setup.

✅ Best Surface – Natural Grass

Natural grass is ideal for securing a bouncy castle, as it allows us to firmly peg down the inflatable. The grass must be firm to ensure the pegs hold securely.

❌ Unsuitable Surfaces

We cannot set up on the following:

  • Driveways, car parks, slabs, monoblock, or tarmac – These surfaces don’t allow for proper anchoring. We do not use sandbags as a substitute.
  • Half grass/half concrete setups – This does not provide a secure base.
  • Steep slopes – A slight slope is fine, but a steep one is unsafe.
  • Wet, soggy ground – Pegs can easily come loose in high winds.

⚠️ Special Considerations

  • Concrete – We can set up on concrete, but we will need to drill 10cm bolts into the floor, which will leave a 5p-sized hole. There is a £25 fee per inflatable for this service.
  • Artificial Grass – We can set up on artificial grass, but we will need to insert 28cm stakes, which requires cutting a small slit in the grass. A small charge applies, and we do not accept responsibility for any damage.
  • Dirt/Soil Areas – We can set up if the soil is firm enough. Please let us know in advance so we can bring a groundsheet.
  • Chipped Stone/Gravel – If the ground underneath is solid enough for a 28cm peg, it may be suitable. If we arrive and our team cannot secure the inflatable, we will unfortunately have to cancel the booking for safety reasons.

🌬 Wind & Safety Precautions

  • Our inflatables can generally be used in winds up to 24mph.
  • However, we may lower this limit based on factors like site exposure, surface stability, and other safety risks during our on-site risk assessment.

Still Unsure? Let Us Check!
