Secure 2 existing swing set anchors into hard soil

£75

Riddlesdown, Greater London

5th May 2026

We tried ourselves but the ground was too hard with the tools we have. Not sure whether it's just hard soil, clay or something more solid. Assuming it can be done just with the anchors, but can pay a bit more if concrete is required/a more secure option!

Reza was amazing, not only did the job but went above and beyond to ensure our swingset was fully safe and secured. Would not hesitate to recommend!
