Matching or Beating the Competition

Our ready-made and bespoke playground markings aren’t just high-quality. They’re also competitively priced. By working in partnership with us, you can be sure your school playground markings are designed to inspire, motivate, and support your students in their growth. You can also be sure that we’ll match or beat the price of other playground marking providers. If their work is like-for-like with ours in quality, get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.

Because we bring prices down, you can even make your budget go further. This means you get the opportunity to invest in even more playground games and activities for outdoor learning. You’ll get an even cooler and more colourful playground, and students get the perfect place to play, progress, and nurture skills.

Our Markings’ Long-Lasting Value

Thermoplastic material is fantastic, and famed in the industry for its durability, especially against heavy foot traffic from school shoes and trainers. Unlike cheaper options that only make use of paint, anti-slip polyurethane markings are made to last – up to 10 times longer than paint! 

A hardwearing and weatherproof design also means our markings won’t fade, crack, or peel, saving you from continual replacements. Their vibrant colours retain rich hues even through the harshest weather Britain has to offer, and the most excitable feet at any playtime, lunchtime, or on Sports Day.

Our experience also ensures proper installation. Altogether, this offers greater value than markings which may seem better for your budget at first, but end up needing repairs or replacing more often. You’ll be guaranteed value for money and a cost-effective solution to cultivate community, capability, and consideration in your kids.

Some of our happy customers

We are passionate about what we do and take great pride in delivering the highest level of satisfaction to our customers.

The markings look amazing and as soon as they were dry the children were all over them especially the Copy Me. Teachers commented it was lovely to see them enjoying them so much. I also heard comments on the main playground saying how smart it looked.

Your fitter was really good and very mindful of the complexities of working on a school site and safety issues that can arise which made it really easy for us.

Orchard Vale Primary School – Devon

We have just had our playground markings revamped by Designs and Lines. From Day One, our children have been playing on the Daily Mile track, using the agility trails and our younger children love the race track. I’m so pleased with the final product and would recommend this company to any other schools looking to make their playgrounds a more exciting place for children to play. Thank you again!!

Katie Whitmore
Teversham C of E Primary School

Just to say thank you. The guys who came on site were great, the marking is lovely and the children are really enjoying it, so much so, they are arguing over who can use it first!

Please pass on my comments to the guys, as not all contractors on site are so understanding of working in a school, especially in the early years areas.

Sharon Keon, School Business Manager
Starks Field Primary School

The work that has been completed looks fantastic and I’m sure that we will be coming back for more.

The gentleman that did the work was lovely, very polite and did a great job. Please do pass on our thanks to him. The communication with your company throughout the process has also been excellent.

It has turned a drab playground into one that is now bright and fun! Roll on September when our
pupils return, they’ll love it!

Mrs Cath Narey, School Business Manager
Pocklington Junior School

I would like to thank your team for the wonderful work that they have carried out in both of our playgrounds at St. Mary’s: they look magnificent. It has been lovely to watch the children ‘discover’ them and devise ways to use them in their play. They are a wonderful addition to our playgrounds.

Once again, thank you so much for all that your company have done.

M. Brewer, Deputy Headteacher
St. Mary’s Prittlewell C of E Primary School

The playgrounds look fantastic and the children love the new markings!

Thank you so much for the excellent service! The team on site were professional, friendly, happy to stop and start at different times of day and consulted where necessary to ensure the markings were placed where we wanted.

James Wrafter, Deputy Headteacher
Marshlands Primary School

Thank you to everyone involved with the smooth running of the transformation of our playgrounds. Pupil and parents are delighted.

The service and care exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to recommend Designs & Lines to other schools.

Angela Robinson, Director of Business

The playground has been injected with ‘new life’ it is bright and colourful and the children are absolutely delighted with the activities they can perform using the markings. The installers were professional, courteous and friendly in their manner.

We look forward to raising funds and working with you again.
