When can a school playground be marked?
Most Adelaide schools book playground marking in the school holidays or on weekends, so the paint can dry and nobody needs to be kept off the area during class time. Small jobs can also be done after school. The asphalt is cleaned first, and old faded games can be removed or painted over.
We work with schools across Adelaide, from Salisbury and Golden Grove to Morphett Vale and Mount Barker. For drop-off zones, see car park line marking in Adelaide, or see all our line marking in Adelaide services.
