Inhouse Maintenance and Cleaning Near Me

In-house maintenance could also include a simple drag mat or drag brush procedure which is basically distributing the sand infill on top of the artificial carpet and this is needed in making sure no moss or algae can start to grow on the surfacing. Moss and algae treatment is needed to the perimeter of the FIH Pitches especially when there are surrounding trees because if weeds can start to grow contamination will quickly get onto the artificial grass and cause drainage issues and possibly flooding. Make sure you fill in our enquiry box with your details if you want to talk about the costs of our sand-dressed pitch cleaning services.
