Picture this: your backyard transforms into the neighborhood’s hottest destination. Kids are laughing, parents are relaxed, and you’re the hero who made it happen.
That’s what happens when you rent a water slide that actually works. No deflated disappointments. No safety scares. Just pure summer joy that keeps going until the sun sets.
Our commercial-grade water slides come with built-in safety nets, entrance ramps, and splash pools designed for hours of safe fun. While other companies cut corners, we deliver equipment that parents trust and kids absolutely love.
The Big Bounce Theory has been making North Merrick families happy since 2007. We’re the local company that understands what matters most: your event goes perfectly, your kids stay safe, and you actually get to enjoy the party too.
We’re fully licensed, insured, and know every street in Nassau County. Our professional crews have set up thousands of events from Merrick Avenue to the waterfront neighborhoods, and we treat your property like our own.
North Merrick families choose us because we show up on time, set up safely, and deliver the kind of reliable service that builds lasting relationships in our tight-knit community.
First, we discuss your space, guest count, and what kind of fun you’re after. Our water slides range from 13 to 22 feet tall, so we’ll match the perfect size to your yard and age group.
Next, our professional crew arrives hours before your event. We handle the heavy lifting, secure everything properly, and give you a quick safety walkthrough. No stress, no surprises, just professional setup that meets New York safety standards.
Finally, your kids splash into summer while you relax. When the party winds down, we return to break everything down and haul it away. Your yard goes back to normal, but the memories last forever.

Every water slide rental includes commercial-grade construction with safety nets, non-slip climbing surfaces, and splash pools that keep water levels safe for all ages. We’re talking about equipment designed for daily use at water parks, not backyard knockoffs.
North Merrick’s affluent families expect quality, and that’s exactly what we deliver. Our slides are cleaned and sanitized before every rental, inspected annually by New York State, and maintained by professionals who understand Long Island’s demanding summer schedule.
Whether you’re hosting a birthday party near the LIRR station or a family reunion by the bay, we have slides that fit your space and budget. From compact 13-footers perfect for younger kids to towering 22-foot dual-lane slides that accommodate the whole neighborhood.
Most of our water slides need between 25-50 feet of length and 12-15 feet of width, depending on the model you choose. We also need at least 15 feet of overhead clearance for safe setup.
Before booking, we’ll discuss your yard layout to ensure the perfect fit. North Merrick’s mix of waterfront properties and inland homes means every setup is different, and our experienced crews know how to work with various space constraints.
We always recommend an extra foot of clearance on all sides for safety. If you’re unsure about your space, we’re happy to do a quick site visit to measure and recommend the best options for your specific property.
Absolutely. All our water slides feature commercial-grade safety equipment including safety nets, entrance ramps, and properly designed splash pools with built-in drainage systems that maintain safe water levels.
Our smaller slides (13-15 feet) are perfect for ages 3 and up, while our larger slides (18-22 feet) work great for older kids and even adults who want to join the fun. Each slide comes with specific weight limits and safety guidelines.
During setup, our crew provides a complete safety orientation covering proper use, supervision requirements, and emergency procedures. We’re fully licensed and insured, with equipment that undergoes annual New York State inspections for your peace of mind.
Every rental includes professional delivery, complete setup, safety orientation, and takedown service. We provide all necessary equipment including blowers, safety mats, and water connections.
Our crew arrives hours before your event to ensure everything is ready when your guests arrive. We’ll connect to your water source (standard garden hose connection) and make sure the slide is properly secured and tested before we leave.
After your event, we return to break down and remove everything, leaving your yard exactly as we found it. No cleanup hassles, no equipment to store – just pure fun followed by complete peace of mind.
For North Merrick summer events, we recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, especially for weekends between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Popular dates like July 4th weekend and August Saturdays fill up quickly.
That said, we understand last-minute celebrations happen. We keep some inventory available for shorter notice bookings and often can accommodate same-week requests if you’re flexible on slide selection.
The earlier you book, the more options you’ll have for specific slide models and preferred delivery times. We also offer flexible rescheduling for weather concerns, because North Merrick families shouldn’t have to worry about summer storms ruining their plans.
While our water slides are designed for outdoor use, we do offer dry slide options that work perfectly for indoor venues like North Merrick’s community centers, school gymnasiums, and large party spaces.
Indoor setups require adequate ceiling height (typically 15+ feet) and proper ventilation for our blower equipment. We’ve successfully set up at various North Merrick venues and can advise on feasibility for your specific location.
For outdoor events with weather backup plans, we can often relocate equipment to covered areas like garages or pavilions if conditions change. Our experienced crews are skilled at adapting to different venue requirements while maintaining safety standards.
Light rain actually makes water slides more fun, but we understand safety comes first. For severe weather, we offer flexible rescheduling options without penalty fees.
If weather develops during your event, our water slides are designed to handle wet conditions safely. The non-slip surfaces and proper drainage systems continue working effectively even in light precipitation.
We monitor weather forecasts closely and will contact you proactively if severe conditions are expected. North Merrick families have enough to worry about without stressing over party logistics, so we make rescheduling as simple as possible while protecting your deposit and preferred equipment choices.
