Maintenance of Football Synthetic Turf Surfaces

With many organisations asking 'Do I need to maintain my artificial football pitch?' It is important to stress the importance of a thorough maintenance schedule. There are now many different designs and specifications of artificial soccer turf and therefore it's important that the upkeep package is bespoke to each type of surface. For example a 2G sand filled or sand-dressed carpet will require different materials when topping up the infill in the fibres. A 3G, 4G and 5G surface will require a sand and rubber infill which needs redistributing, decompacting and replacing on a regular basis to make certain that the carpet passes the performance and safety tests.

We carry out a range of upkeep services for soccer synthetic surfaces to ensure that your surfacing remains in great condition. The upkeep required will depend on the type of surface which you have installed; our experts can talk you through a maintenance plan to make sure that your surfacing performs like new. If you have neglected the facility and the surfacing is now beyond repair, we can also carry out resurfacing in Portswood SO17 2 and surrounding areas, to get your facility back to its former glory.

Waterlogged Football Pitch in Portswood

The thorough and regular sports pitch maintenance will ensure less money spent on repairs and a carpet which works to its maximum potential for much longer.  A well-maintained surface will remain porous and SUDs compliant with a permeable membrane allowing the free drainage of surface water into the substrata. What happens when an artificial surface isn't maintained correctly? The infill can become contaminated with mud and dirt causing the field to hold water and possibly waterlog.  This can then become a breeding ground for moss, algae and weeds which are much easier to proactively prevent than to rid with reactive servicing. We always recommend carrying out routine 3G pitch maintenance https://www.artificialpitchmaintenance.co.uk/3g-pitch/hampshire/portswood to keep your soccer facility safe and make sure any problems are dealt with as quickly as possible.

What is the Cost to Maintain a Football Field?

The cost to maintain a synthetic football field can vary depending on a number of factors. One of the biggest factors which can implement the price of preservation servicing is the size of the field. Obviously, a full-sized football pitch will cost more to clean and maintain when compared to a small 5-a-side facility. Another aspect which can affect the cost is the current condition of the facility near me. If your facility has been neglected and is full of contamination, rips and tears, a complete resurface may be required which can cost much more than a deep clean or rejuvenation. By carrying out upkeep regularly, you are able to reduce the price of repairs in the future.
