Baseball and Softball Field Maintenance
A baseball and softball field maintenance plan for natural grass athletic fields, based on known best practices and the latest turf science includes mowing, fertilization, irrigation, aeration, and overseeding to keep the grass healthy year-round and provide a safe playing surface throughout the season.
Sports field maintenance improves the quality and playability of your athletic fields to ensure safe and optimal playing conditions.
Using the proper techniques for maintaining and protecting all types of athletic field surfaces, we can ensure your fields are a point of pride for everyone in your organization.
When maintaining your baseball and softball fields, Sport Field Services takes into consideration the chemical properties and physical topography of your athletic fields. We set up a maintenance plan for your fields, which includes weed and insect control. We implement the plan, using overseeding and other traffic management strategies.
We are also well-versed in the latest advancements in synthetic turf, including installation and maintenance. Synthetic turf can be a viable alternative for fields where natural grass is not ideal.
In short, Sports Field Services will care for fields ensuring you and your organization will be proud of your home fields.
