At SofSURFACES, we insist that our installers are certified
because we realize that the accuracy, consistency, and
reliability of playground surfacing is only as good as the
people who install it. For this reason, SofSURFACES has
developed a certification program to recognize and promote
surfacing installation excellence.
A certified SofTILE installer must demonstrate an in-depth
knowledge of the unique properties associated with our
products including expansion and contraction, compression
techniques, adhesion, sub-surface preparation, and site
drainage. Installers must demonstrate understanding of
the prevailing safety standards including use zones, and
critical fall height ratings.
Installation certification involves extensive training followed
by both a written and hands on exam. Ongoing certification
is maintained through annual audits of completed work.
All of our certified installers are placed in a national data-
base broken down by geographic region to service our
customers at the local level. Alternatively, we provide
advisory technicians who can supervise your own team
of installers.
SofSURFACES provides support for your project from pre-
sales consultation to final validation and the goal of our
certification program is to provide total assurance that our
installers possess the necessary knowledge, skills and
abilities to competently perform your installation.
