Repairing Sidewalk Gaps

Had a great response from one of our customers that I wanted to post about their experience with Fast Patch. For those who are not familiar with this product, Fast Patch is a kit for repairing damages areas on running tracks and rubber playground surfaces. Each kit contains the right amount of crumb rubber and binder needed to repair a 6 sq ft section of the wear layer on these types of surfaces. This particular customer's poured in place safety surfacing on the playground was pulling away from the sidewalk, leaving a sizable gap. They were concerned this people would trip or a small child could wedge their foot in the gap and either break, or sprain it. The gap was a liability and calling a contractor to repair it would be expensive.










This customer purchase a couple of Fast Patch repair kits from Discount Playground Supply  and let their maintenance crew attempt to fix the gap. Following the instructions, the crew cut back the damaged areas, prepped the area, mixed and applied the Fast Patch and were impressed. This is how it turned out








Needles to say it turned out great, they loved the product and they saved a lot of money by doing this repair in house.
