ARE YOUR RAMPS OK TO GO OUTSIDE?

YES. They are made from exterior grade materials. All the structural spars, joists, posts and handrails are made from factory pre-treated timbers which do not require any further treatment. However, we do recommend that you apply a timber preservative (as recommended in the build manual) to all the plywood parts. 

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY ORDER?

It takes around 3 working days for us to dispatch your kit from the date you order it. There can be a longer lead in time in peak season but if you need it quick, tell us and we’ll advise if we can meet your required date.

YES. Our kits come complete with all the parts & materials you’ll need to complete the ramp. Simple assembly, with pre-cut joists, pre-drilled boards, all the screws & fasteners, plus the build manual with step by step instructions. You’ll be shredding your ramp in no time!

WHAT GROUND SURFACE SHOULD I BUILD MY HALF PIPE RAMP ON?

Our Half pipes can be placed on patios, lawns, decks, compacted gravel, dirt, tarmac or concrete. The surface needs to be roughly level. If your site isn’t level, no problem there is a solution, just add a foundation plan to your order.

CAN YOU BUILD IT FOR ME?

YES.  If you are not the handy type, why not let the SB Skate Ramp team come and take care of your ramp build. We build around 1 in every 20 ramp kits we sell. Using our own in-house team of experienced ramp builders, we can have most kits built in a day or two. For a price for the build please contact us and include your build site postcode and your chosen ramp kit.

DIY home build half and quarter pipe kits!

If you can build an IKEA flat pack wardrobe you can build one of our self assembly ramp kits, ideally you’ll need 2 pairs of hands and an electric drill/screw driver!

Prior to assembly we advise for longevity, of your quarter or half pipe, to treat with a timber preservative, although our ramps are suitable for outdoors we liken them to timber garden furniture.  Cover during wet or inclement weather and treat with a preservative to increase the life span and keep it looking awesome for years to come!

All our products are made from exterior grade materials but in order to keep your ramp protected, we highly recommend that you apply a preservative treatment to the plywood parts of the ramp, ideally before you assemble. 

Details of a recommended product are in your build manual, which you will receive when your order is processed.   All of the structural timber, spars, posts & handrails are pre treated so won’t need any attention.

Check out our How to video - showing the simple steps! Will be on You Tube to follow

All our ramps are supplied with an illustrated manual showing full step-by-step build instructions supported with full on-line technical assistance.

You will need basic DIY experience, a few everyday tools & electric drill/driver. Most can complete a 3′high half pipe in a weekend.  If all else fails, we’re only at the end of the phone if you need a bit more help!
