Professional Approach Was Outstanding

"The Blue Imp team was a pleasure to work with during our Rotary Peace Park Playground replacement project. Their expertise and knowledge in playground design made it possible to maximize the play value of this highly-used, marquee playground within the City. As a bonus, they were able to offer play features that presented relevant local themes, such as dog sleds and a paddlewheeler. We have received a large number of positive comments from residents regarding the new play structures. From design to installation, their professional approach was outstanding. We look forward to working with Blue Imp on future projects." City of Whitehorse, Yukon Territory

The Way to Play!

The team at Blue Imp has always gone above and beyond with their customer service. From the beginning of our tendering process for our first playground with Blue Imp to the installation of our second playground with them, we have always felt well taken care of. Their design team has been able to take our ideas and craft them into amazing imagery, turning these ideas into a reality. We love the multitude of colours and themes we were able to choose from that met our style choices. Blue Imp was also able to provide us with a variety of equipment that has been well received and engaging for many age groups in our community. When we expressed our need for accessible play items, they were able to deliver. The installation team has always been “in and out” quick, professional and good communicators on their needs. Throughout the installation process and afterwards the team at Blue Imp has always communicated with us to ensure that we are satisfied with the finished product. Blue Imp is the way to play! Jamie Hussey, Clerk Treasurer Township of Pickle Lake, Ontario

Play for All

"We are really happy with the new Blue Imp playground that was designed and built at our school by BDI Play Designs. We are a large school with over 500 students all of whom love to get outside and be active during recess times. Our new inclusive playground is great in that it is designed to ensure that ALL students can get on the playground. BDI designed the park with ALL students in mind and ensured that every student no matter what their abilities can play with their friends. Our new playground ensures that no students are left on the sidelines." Chris Good — Principal, École Barrie Wilson School
