Keilor East Leisure Centre

Project Type: Splash Pad

Location: Quinn Grove, Keilor East, Victoria, Australia

Keilor East Leisure Centre first opened in October 2021, but experienced issues with its original pour-in-place rubber surface. The old surface was difficult to clean and maintain as patches began disintegrating from the substrate. Mauer Construction Tiling removed the failing pour-in-place surface, adjusted drain heights and floor levels, and installed Life Floor safety surfacing with a design created by our in-house Design Studio.

Bright pops of Turquoise throughout the design complement the fully integrated Landing Pads at the bottom of the slide exits. While our standard Landing Pads have a beveled edge, the variation shown here is a custom version that allows for a more level surface. This custom variation is created by layering tile around the slides to accommodate higher impact cushioning.

Waterplay features provide numerous ways for children to engage and are suited for a wide variety of play styles. From dump buckets to small ground sprays, there’s something for everyone at Keilor East Leisure Centre.
