Playground canopies in Leicester
Our core structure across Leicester is a powder-coated steel playground canopy with a mono-pitch polycarbonate roof, engineered to the site and finished in your colours. We cover Loughborough, Hinckley and Oadby and the wider area. It gives schools and nurseries all-weather cover over play and social areas.

For nurseries and EYFS settings in Leicester, 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. That takes in Oadby, Wigston and Clarendon Park and the rest of Leicester.

We build covered outdoor classrooms for Leicester schools, turning a corner of the playground or field into an all-weather teaching space that supports outdoor learning across the year.

Where a Leicester 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 Leicester
Do you install playground canopies across Leicester?
Yes. We design, manufacture and install playground canopies, early-years shade, outdoor classrooms and covered MUGA across Leicester and the surrounding area, for schools, nurseries and councils.
Can you install during term time in Leicester?
We plan Leicester 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 Leicester?
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 Leicester planning or building-control officer needs.
