How To Choose The Best Back Yard Skating Rink Builder Near Me

 

There are tons of rink builders and companies that offer back yard rink building. It can be had to find reputable and professional “rink builders near me”. This article will give you the tools needed to vet a professional back yard rink builder

Communication

Rink building is much different that other ” trade” services. Rink building is not rocket science, but with a build window of 2 months builders need to master the craft of the rink and have amazing communication.

What to look for:

  1. Request response times within 24-48 hours
  2. Quotes within 24 hours
  3. Missed call back within 24-36  hours

*On my way texts for assessments and work is gold tier communication

Reputation ( Choose Top – Rated Back Yard Skating Rink Construction Services)

Rink builders are either really good or really bad. The rink building is all about client experience. Rink builders are working primarily over holiday breaks where families with kids are home.

Keep these 4 flags in mind when hiring rink builder near you.

🟥 Grumpy or Pushy Over The Phone

🟥  Low Review Ratings or No Reviews

✅ 4.5 + Star Rating

✅ Happy & Jolly Over The Phone

Back Yard Rink Pricing

Remember a back yard ice skating rink has to hold anywhere from 1500 – 5000 gallons of water. The last thing you need is your rink ending up in your basement. Going with the higher rink bid wont just give you peace of mind but can save you $100 000 of damages.

But whats key is that the highest bit has quality materials. Here is what to look for in the Rink Builders offer.

  1. Rink frame built with at least 1.5 inch thick wood
  2. Braces at least every 12 – 24 feet
  3. Staking method
  4. 6 mill or more rink liner

A back yard rink should cost at least 2x-3x the amount it would cost you to build it yourself. If its the same or less than it would cost you to build, the builder is 100% building you a cheap and dangerous rink.

Lastly

Make sure your back yard rink builder is insured! Hiring a “rink builder near me” off a classified site like facebook marketplace or kijiji is a great way to get ghosted or be left with a half built rink.

Every year rinkbuild.com gets tons of calls for just that. We even had to create a new service we call The Rink Doctor to help clients of other companies get their back yard rink fixed!
