Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when I book?
You will receive a booking confirmation email immediately. We aim to call you a day or two before your booking date/event to confirm all details like exact times, parking, best access etc.
Can I pay in advance or pay a deposit?
Yes, please call us after your booking confirmation email and we can organise this for you.
How long does it take to set up?
For most of our inflatables it takes us around 15-25 minutes to set up and around the same for collection.
Do you set up if it is raining?
We aim to always put out our inflatables and carry out your booking as long as the weather is not dangerous. Most of our inflatables have rain covers and so are fine for light showers during the day. We will only cancel a booking if it is heavy rain or the wind is at a dangerous speed -over 18mph (the law is 24mph but we allow for error). The majority of the time when there is rain it is ok to go ahead, though this is something we discuss a day or two before and come to a mutual agreement.
Can you put a Bouncy Castle on artificial grass or concrete?
Yes we can set up one of our inflatables on artificial lawns and concrete. We use weights instead of stakes when setting up on artificial lawns so there is no damage to them. On concrete we use weights with tarpaulins to protect the underneath of the inflatable. When setting up on real grass we will use stakes.
If I hire multiple products can I get a discount?
When hiring multiple products we can discuss about creating a personalised bundle for your event. Please call to discuss.
Is there a delivery charge?
There is no delivery charge for the majority, however, if you are outside of our free delivery radius there will be a small delivery charge. When booking it will tell you the price for delivery in your area.
How much space do I need?
The size of the inflatables are written in their descriptions, you will need an additional 1ft of clear space around the inflatable -this includes branches, raised beds etc. For larger inflatables like our big slides we ask for an additional 2ft. If booking for an indoor hall you will need to take into consideration the 1ft additional space on top of the height of the inflatable as it cannot be touching the ceiling, low hanging lights etc.
What if I have measured wrongly and it does not fit?
We will do our best to provide you with a replacement inflatable which does fit where possible. This is dependant on what is left and available and if we have time to do so. Please measure clear space only, so not from fence to fence, please take in to consideration raised beds, flower beds, branches etc.
What is the latest collection time?
Our latest collection time is around 7.00pm. Occasionally we are asked to collect the castle at a later time, sometimes we are able to do this but it is dependant upon the days schedule etc. If we can it may incur a £30 fee. Please call to discuss. During winter we can only collect during daylight hours if your inflatable is outside and so this will be before the usual time of 7.00pm, this does not apply if your inflatable is set up inside.
What time do you collect if I have it overnight?
We aim to collect the inflatable in the AM period, we will discuss arrangements with you beforehand.
Are your inflatables clean and safe?
Yes we pride ourselves on keeping our inflatables in very clean, sanitised condition and they also pass all of their annual safety tests.
Are you Insured?
Yes we have public liability insurance which you can view here Insurance
How long do I get the Inflatable for?
You can book from 7am-7pm. We do not charge less for shorter usage or by the hour.
Do your inflatables run off of electricity or generators?
Our Inflatables run off of an electric supply so when booking please make sure you have an electric point available for us. We have long extension cables available. There are rare occasions where we can run from a generator as long as you have cleared permission from a specific area. We expect you to provide the generator and for you to show proof of permission to use the land/area.
Can a member of staff stay and supervise?
Yes we can organise a member of staff to stay and supervise the castle. Please see our Supervision Service page.
