- This video shows how we install swingset bases/playset foundations at Site Prep. Our swingset bases include a base layer of crushed stone, a weed barrier fabric, and a top layer of wood mulch. A pressure-treated lumber perimeter keeps all the materials in place.

It would be a nice touch to put a soft bezel on the upward edges of all top boards so all edges of wood are soft, making rounded edges vs. 90 degree edges, just a thought. Very thorough job, well done.
Thank you guys.
What kind of mulch or wood chips did you use?
What do you anchor the play set to with the rock sub base?
Great video! So how does it drain? Through the rock and under the pressure treated lumber?
Hi Matthew,
Water can drain straight through the crushed stone and into the ground below.
Did yall compact the stone at all before putting down the fabric?
The stone we use (3/4" clean) is about 95% compacted straight from the truck. So we don't always compact it, especially if it's not the top layer.
How much does something like this job cost?
