About us

Welcome to our website!

Let us introduce ourselves and give you an idea of what you can anticipate when collaborating with our company. 

Hi there, I’m Candra Grider, and my husband, Steve Grider, co-owners of Recreation Installations. Steve has worked in this industry since 1991, and I joined in 2001. We’re excited to offer our expertise to you and your organization. Our goal is not only to bring your playground ideas to life but also to provide comprehensive support by answering any questions you have.

Our favorite part of what we do is working directly with our clients. We genuinely enjoy hearing about your preferences and requirements regarding playground equipment. As individuals who value interpersonal relationships, we take great satisfaction in providing exceptional service and superior products that meet your needs.

We take pride in bringing your playground vision to life. Seeing an empty space transformed into a fun, exciting, safe, and inclusive play area is what drives us to excel in every project we undertake and successfully complete.

How about we connect via call or email today and discuss ways to add some fun to your upcoming play space?
