Manufacturing Process
Every Little Rascals playhouse is individually manufactured, painted and wrapped for protection prior to delivery.

After it has been manufactured, it is sent to the painting department to start the paint process. At this point you will receive another email, keeping you updated along the way.
The painting of your playhouse is a 3 stage process. Firstly, the wood is given a light sand down before a water based, white wood primer is applied. Once this is dry, two coats of your chosen colour are applied using a water based, opaque paint.
Opaque paint will give a solid colour finish to completely enhance your playhouse.
Once the paint department is satisfied that the finish of up to the quality expected of Little Rascals Playhouses, it is snit over for packing and dispatch, at this point you will receive another email notification of this, keeping you updated all along the way of the different processes.

About Little Rascals
Little Rascals Playhouses is a division of JMP Stores Ltd. A family business established in 2013 becoming one of the leading UK stockists and retailers of garden trampolines. It has developed its own unique and successful brand of Trampolines know as ‘Telstar’, calling on over 40 years of expertise in the trampoline industry.
Using their extensive experience of serving the retail customer direct from source to the garden, a niche opportunity was identified to produce high quality Wooden Playhouses, using the same ethos of direct from source to the consumer.
JMP Stores spent 2 years researching and developing a range of wooden playhouses to suit every child’ s dream and parents garden. Over this period an Essex based production facility was established.
One of the Unique selling points of this production is all orders are manufactured to order, the final process before the quality control being 3 coats of paint are added to the customers colour of choice.
