More than 90% of my work comes from referrals and repeat clients. I’m proud of that because it shows communities across Southeast Florida trust me, Patty Carruthers, to deliver results. For over 35 years, I’ve helped cities, schools, HOAs, and neighborhood groups create safe, beautiful outdoor spaces across Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, Okeechobee, and Monroe counties. Whether it’s a new playground, a dog park renovation, or a shade and shelter installation, my focus is on long-term value and community impact.

I’ve supported projects of every size, from Miami Gardens’ $60 million bond program to park renovations in Hollywood and the Florida Keys. Each installation, whether a playground, pavilion, sports court, or fitness area, is planned so it meets today’s needs and continues serving families, students, and residents for years to come.

Working in South Florida means designing with our climate in mind. From coastal weather and year-round sun to high-traffic use in schoolyards and public parks, I help communities choose the right playground equipment, surfacing, and site furnishings for local conditions. By factoring in safety standards, ADA accessibility, and durability, I ensure each space is built to perform season after season.

At the heart of my work is a simple belief: outdoor spaces bring people together. Parks and playgrounds are where children learn, neighbors connect, and families gather. That is why every project I take on is personal. Creating inclusive, welcoming places across Southeast Florida is not just my profession, it is my passion.

Over the years, I have built strong partnerships with schools, municipalities, HOAs, and parks departments throughout Southeast Florida. Those relationships mean I understand what communities truly need, whether durable surfacing for high-traffic schools, shaded seating for neighborhood parks, or safe, inclusive equipment for children of all abilities. Backed by the designers, engineers, and installers at Bliss Products and Services, my role is to listen, provide the right solutions, and ensure every project reflects both the community’s vision and the character of South Florida.

Most projects start with the same questions: what fits the site, the budget, the code, and the crew that will install and maintain it? I help you match the right pieces so decisions are straightforward.
  • Play structures, climbers, and independent play
  • Shade canopies and umbrellas
  • Safety surfacing: PIP rubber, turf, EWF
  • Park shelters, pavilions, restrooms
  • Dog parks and agility courses
  • Outdoor fitness, site furnishings, bike parking, waste bins
  • Field and court sports equipment, bleachers
  • Inclusive layouts with ADA-aware choices
I size and specify for heavy use, long life, and easy upkeep. Backed by the designers, engineers, and installers at Bliss Products and Services, I confirm Florida-ready materials, coatings, and mount types, and return clean, complete submittals. Share a site address or GPS pin and a target date, and I will coordinate the next steps.

I support planning across Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, Indian River, Okeechobee, and Monroe. This gallery includes my projects and other Bliss Products and Services examples. I tailor materials, coatings, and details to South Florida codes, salt air, and maintenance needs.

Outdoor spaces change lives — they give kids a place to play, families a place to gather, and neighborhoods a place to grow stronger. My work across Southeast Florida is about making sure every community, no matter its size, has a safe and lasting place to enjoy. If you’re planning your next project, I’d be glad to share ideas and guide you through the process.

Popular Outdoor Products for Southeast Florida Communities

The right products are only the beginning; what matters is how they change real communities. In West Palm Beach, Pompano Beach, and Islamorada, I have seen playground surfacing, shade structures, and outdoor fitness turn empty spaces into parks and school areas families use every day.

Next, explore the popular products creating lasting recreation spaces across Southeast Florida. Send a brief and a few photos. I will review the site, confirm codes and dimensions, and match surfacing, shade, furnishings, and play systems to your goals. With support from the Bliss Products and Services team, I return spec ready choices and realistic budget ranges so your project performs in daily use.

When you are ready, I will turn your shortlist into a plan you can act on. I size models and finishes for South Florida salt air, wind, and heavy use, then return drawings, quantities, warranty notes, lead times, and clear budgets. You get a simple path from selection to installation and a space that performs in daily use.
