Playground canopies in Chelmsford
Our core structure across Chelmsford is a powder-coated steel playground canopy with a mono-pitch polycarbonate roof, engineered to the site and finished in your colours. That takes in Springfield, Great Baddow and Broomfield and the rest of Chelmsford. It gives schools and nurseries all-weather cover over play and social areas.

For nurseries and EYFS settings in Chelmsford, we install low-eaves, free-flow canopies that link the classroom to the outdoor area so children can move safely between the two in any weather. From Broomfield and Writtle, we work right across Chelmsford.

Where a Chelmsford site needs sun and UV protection rather than an all-weather roof, we supply and tension playground shade sails over play, seating and early-years areas, sized and anchored to the space.

Playground canopy questions in Chelmsford
Do you install playground canopies across Chelmsford?
Yes. We design, manufacture and install playground canopies, early-years shade, outdoor classrooms and covered MUGA across Chelmsford and the surrounding area, for schools, nurseries and councils.
Can you install during term time in Chelmsford?
We plan Chelmsford installations around the school day and, where a project needs it, work in the school holidays so the playground is back in use for the new term. We confirm the programme once the design is signed off.
Do I need planning permission for a playground canopy in Chelmsford?
It depends on the size, the site and the setting. Many school and nursery canopies need planning permission and building-regulations approval, and we provide the drawings, structural calculations and specification your Chelmsford planning or building-control officer needs.
