Everything about this service was amazing. Delivered on time. The pricing is so reasonable. And they came and picked the bouncy castle ip early which was a big help to the end of a busy kids party. Definitely come back again when needed and will recommend to others. Thank you!!!

We hired the assault castle for our son's 8th birthday party in August. It was fantastic and the owners were very friendly and professional. They arrived promptly and set up (and take down) was quick. We did an overnight hire which was well worth the small extra cost. The castle was very clean and all kids (and adults) had a great time. We would definitely use them again in the future.
