Who paints hopscotch and games markings on school playgrounds?

City Linemarking installs playground designs including hopscotch grids, snakes and ladders, chess boards and handball courts, and provides playground line marking for NSW Government schools. Projects use slip-resistant materials suited to active play areas.

What is the difference between thermoplastic and painted playground line markings?

Thermoplastic markings last roughly five to ten years and are applied using burners reaching 300 degrees, drying in about 15 minutes. Standard chlorinated rubber-based paint typically lasts three to five years on playground surfaces. Budget and expected foot traffic usually decide which option suits a school.

Is there a contractor that regularly handles NSW Government school playground markings?

City Linemarking provides playground line marking for NSW Government schools and understands the design and slip-resistance requirements involved. The same service is available for private schools and childcare playgrounds.

How long can a school expect thermoplastic playground markings to last?

Thermoplastic playground markings generally hold up for five to ten years, considerably longer than standard paint. The trade-off is a more involved application process using high-heat burners, which is why the upfront cost is higher than a painted alternative.

Thermoplastic Templates

Our advanced thermoplastic templates provide a robust solution. To achieve a lasting bond, these templates require burners that reach 300°C for application. When expertly installed, they boast a lifespan of five to ten years. After melting onto the surface, we add a non-slip aggregate to enhance shoe grip. The beauty of these playground line markings is their quick drying time, with just 15 minutes needed for full dryness.

Paint

For a more budget-friendly option, we offer road marking paint with a lifespan of three to five years. We use chlorinated rubber-based paint, which can be customized to match any color you desire for your playground markings. The paint is applied using a line marking machine, followed by the addition of a grip additive to ensure a non-slip surface. Paint is perfect for quick refreshes and seasonal updates.
