Winter is fast approaching and for schools with sports pitches, it’s time to ensure that these valuable spaces remain in good condition despite the challenging weather.
At Alben, we take pride in supporting numerous schools in preserving their sports pitches. Here’s an overview of the comprehensive services we offer as part of our dedicated care packages:
Regular Inspections: Our expert team conducts meticulous inspections of your sports pitch, identifying areas prone to waterlogging or frost damage. Early detection of these issues is crucial to prevent them from escalating.
Adequate Drainage: Effective drainage is paramount for pitch longevity. If your school’s pitch lacks proper drainage, we provide guidance on installing robust drainage systems or consulting experts. Efficient drainage ensures rapid water removal, minimising the risk of damage.
Mowing and Aeration: As the growing season draws to a close, we tailor your mowing schedule to leave longer grass, offering protection against frost and wear. Additionally, our aeration services enhance soil health and reduce compaction, promoting optimal pitch conditions.
Snow Removal: When winter brings snowfall, our teams swiftly clear the pitch to prevent compaction and damage as the snow melts and refreezes, ensuring a safe and playable surface.
Our experienced teams ensure that sports pitches stay in good shape throughout the winter months, providing a safe and enjoyable space for students to continue their sporting activities.
