Key Sports Turf Services
Grass Cutting & Mowing
Regular, precise cutting is essential for turf health and play quality. We use professional‑grade equipment to achieve clean, even cuts that promote dense, healthy swards. Cutting frequencies are adjusted seasonally to maintain optimal playing conditions.
Fertilising & Nutrient Management
Balanced nutrition is the foundation of strong, resilient turf. Our team assesses soil condition, usage patterns, and seasonal requirements to create a targeted fertilisation programme that supports growth, colour, and root strength throughout the year.
Verti‑Draining
Compaction is one of the biggest threats to sports turf performance. Verti‑draining relieves pressure, improves aeration, and enhances water infiltration; essential for preventing surface waterlogging and encouraging deeper, healthier root systems.
Herbicide & Fungicide Application
We provide safe, compliant, and effective treatments to control weeds, moss, and turf diseases. All applications are carried out by qualified operatives, ensuring your playing surface remains clean, healthy, and free from invasive species.
Slitting
Regular slitting helps oxygen reach the root zone, reduces compaction, and improves drainage. This simple but vital process keeps turf responsive and resilient, especially on high‑traffic sports pitches.
Line Marking
Accurate, crisp line marking is essential for professional presentation and compliance. We use high‑quality paints and precision equipment to deliver sharp, durable markings for football, rugby, athletics, and multi‑sport layouts. Read More
Hollow Core Tining
Hollow coring removes plugs of soil to alleviate compaction and improve the movement of air, water, and nutrients. This process is particularly effective for heavily used pitches and is often combined with top dressing for maximum benefit.
Scarifying
Scarifying removes thatch, moss, and organic build‑up that can suffocate turf and hinder drainage. Our machinery lifts unwanted material while encouraging fresh, vigorous growth — essential for maintaining a fast, true playing surface.
Top Dressing
Applying a carefully selected top dressing improves surface levels, enhances drainage, and supports recovery after aeration. We match the dressing to your soil profile to ensure long‑term compatibility and performance.
Overseeding
Overseeding rejuvenates worn or thinning areas, improves sward density, and enhances overall pitch quality. We use high‑performance sports seed mixes chosen for durability, colour, and rapid establishment.
