A: If the weather is bad/raining we will call you the evening before the date of hire and advise you what to do. For safety reasons we would advise not use bouncy castles in adverse weather ie heavy rain and will not supply if strong winds are forecast on the day.
Q: Is it ok to put a bouncy castle on my lawn, will it cause much damage?
A: We actually prefer to put the bouncy castle on a lawn area. For safety reasons we must hammer in 6 securing pegs to hold the castle down during use. The castle will have a ground sheet placed under it so the grass will not come to any harm. The holes left over from the securing pegs will disappear after a few days.

No unfortunately due to HSE regulation we do not hire bouncy castles outside on concrete or gravel surface.

A: Each castle has different limits. Please note children's castles should never be used by heavier adults, remember the hirer is responsible for any damage.
