Synthetic Playing Surfaces
Synthetic Surface Construction
Bourne Sport have a wealth of experience in the construction of artificial playing surfaces. From Multi Use Games Areas to full 3G pitches, we can tailor the build to match your budget and provide you with an all year round facility.
Polymeric
A porous rubberised outdoor surface used predominantly for athletics tracks and multi-use games areas, ideal for 5 a-side football, netball, basketball and tennis.
Artificial Grass
3rd generation pitches manufactured with polypropylene fibres. Laid on porous macadam bases, with or without shock pads, they are typically used for rugby, football and hockey.
Porous Macadam
With their low maintenance requirements, long durability and relatively low installation cost, these surfaces can be coated with water based acrylic or polyurethane paint and can be adapted to many different sports requirements.
Cricket Carpets
We are a licensed distributor of Verde Sports (Cricket) Ltd and able to offer their complete range of synthetic turf cricket facilities including ECB approved systems, all constructed in accordance with strict quality guidelines and procedures.
Synthetic Surface Maintenance
Proper maintenance of your artificial facility can virtually double the lifespan of the surface/carpet. We offer a full range of cleaning and brushing services that come as part of a construction package and/or a one off treatment.
3G Pitches
Regular Brushing
Redistributes the fill (sand or rubber) evenly over the surface and stands up the pile.
Deep Cleaning
Vacuums the sand or rubber from the top of the pile, passes it through a sieve and returns it the the surface, removing all the debris that normally accumulates.
Extreme Clean
For more challenging situations, a series of counter-rotating brushes will vigorously remove debris from the surface, to be picked up by the deep cleaner.
Moss & Algae Removal
Chemical treatment of the surface with approved products and licenced operators.
Carpet Repair
Splits and tears can be professionally repaired at short notice.
Polymeric & Macadam Surfaces
Moss & Algae Removal
The main reason for moss and algal attack is predominantly down to poor maintenance and lack of effective cultural practices coupled with environmental and location factors that stimulate moss and algal growth (wet, damp, humid conditions and poor airflow, poor sunlight and poor drainage). We offer chemical treatment of the surface with approved products and licenced operators.
Line Marking
We stock and apply a range of professional line marking paint for both natural and synthetic turf as well as hard surface line marking paint and aerosol line marking paint.
Associated Services
Sometimes on-site grounds maintenance staff for whatever reason are unable to carry out all their duties. We can provide staff at short notice to carry out all the regular jobs, as part of our grounds maintenance service.
Additionally, we can look after the installation of rugby and football posts, regular or one-off line marking on football pitches, tennis courts and any other playing surfaces, as well as perimeter works such as tree and shrub planting, fencing and footpaths.
