Serving Communities Across Jacksonville / Gainesville, Florida

Playgrounds, shade, surfacing, shelters, and site furnishings mapped to local codes and practical upkeep.

Across North Central Florida in Jacksonville, St. Johns, Gainesville, and the surrounding counties, Jessica works alongside territory lead DeWitt Gibbs and the Bliss Products and Services support team to translate early ideas into buildable, code-aware plans. After confirming how the site will be used, they review site access and any drainage constraints, then align playground elements, shade coverings, fall safety surfacing, wood & metal shelters, and park site amenities like benches, trash receptacles and picnic tables with your local requirements and formulate a practical upkeep schedule.
