Exceeded Our Needs!

We can't speak highly enough of our experience with Blue Imp. Our organization had zero experience putting in a park and our consultant led us step by step, working with our budget to achieve the greatest fun for local kids at a price we could afford. He listened to our goals and concerns, and helped develop a plan that not only met, but exceeded our needs. Blue Imp equipment not only functions perfectly, but looks amazing! The variety of colors we chose are exciting and the children in the community are thrilled. From the first to last step, we had total support from Blue Imp. We relied on their expertise and professionalism, and highly recommend them to any organization looking to upgrade or design and install a new park. Jody Phillips, Dunmore Community Association

Perfect Partner

"Lakehead District School Board through capital investment has been selecting sites that require new playground equipment. Our Board has found the perfect partner in Blue Imp. Their team has worked tirelessly with Board stakeholders to create, design and modify playground equipment unique to each school. Much time and attention to detail was given to every aspect. Being in a northern climate meant our Board needed quality, functional equipment and we determined Blue Imp checked those boxes. From planning stages, to coordinating delivery and installation, Blue Imp staff provided a comprehensive and organized plan. Their friendly sales team took the time to follow up with each location making sure everyone was satisfied and they met all of the requirements. Lakehead District School Board would recommend Blue Imp’s products and services to any organization. Everyone involved was extremely pleased with the outcome from start to finish!"

We LOVE our new playground!

"Our playground committee, made up of student representatives from grades 2-6 and a few staff representatives and myself spent considerable time determining the types of activities our students were familiar with and would like, yet at the same time having an element of uniqueness, and a focus on creative play and physical fitness... Tasked with the challenge to be innovative in creating a design that appealed to our students, Blue Imp did not disappoint. The new proposed design exceeded our expectations, and aesthetically, being able to be built in our school colours, our new creative playground is the envy of the community. Students are challenged to be creative, to develop fitness in a variety of ways, and there is always a ‘new way’ to maneuver across the equipment. From the designing of the playground, to the installation, to the follow-up service, we have been extremely pleased with all levels of service we have experienced. Thanks, Laura and Blue Imp, we LOVE our new playground!" Mark Leduc, Principal, Wellington Heights Public School
