Groundwork for Success: The Benefits of Surface Preparation


Surface preparation is vital to athletic field construction. The subbase is the foundation upon which the entire playing surface is built. It provides structural support and stability, ensuring the field can withstand the rigorous demands of athletic activities. 

Properly designed and graded fields manage changes in elevation and slope, ensuring proper drainage and preventing water accumulation that can lead to soggy, unsafe playing conditions.  

We employ advanced athletic field construction and grading techniques to ensure proper drainage, flood prevention, and soil stability. By carefully contouring and leveling the site, we can mitigate potential problems associated with uneven terrain. Our meticulous surface preparation creates a durable, high-performance playing surface that enhances athletic experiences, prolongs the facility’s lifespan, AND serves as the foundation for a beautifully created turf field.
