Maintenance Contracts
Our maintenance contracts provide scheduled, expert care for artificial sports surfaces, ensuring they remain safe, high-performing, and durable throughout the year.
Regular servicing prevents compaction, infill loss, and fibre wear, protecting your facility investment.
Tailored to suit every type of surface and level of use, our contracts cover routine brushing, deep cleaning, infill management, and inspections.
With a structured plan in place, your pitch, court, or track stays in peak condition, minimising costly repairs and maximising long-term performance.
MatchFit®
MatchFit® is our annual contracted maintenance service. There are three tiers available: Premier (12 visits); Plus (6 visits); and Play (4 visits).
Bespoke frequencies are also available on request. Each package is categorised by its frequency of maintenance and re-stick repair allowance. Contract period is typically 1-5 years.
Each MatchFit® visit comprises a Power Sweep and perimeter Vegetation Treatment (to 1m band). On 3G surfaces, a Decompaction is also completed. A re-stick repair allowance is also included.
Your chosen MatchFit® programme should reflect the surface usage levels (based on intensity of usage, not just booking hours). Other considerations include environmental factors, in-house maintenance, previous maintenance works, certification / performance requirements and contractual obligations.
Our MatchFit® packages
Power Sweeping
Power Sweeping is a cumulative process and should be completed at regular intervals by a specialist maintenance provider.
This process is more technical than Drag Brushing and involves the use of a rotary brush to lift, clean and redress the top few mm of infill.
- Two-stage cleaning
- Carpet pile recovery
- Infill cleaning
- Playing characteristics preserved
- Helps to regulate drainage and porosity
- Ensures even distribution of infill
- Reduces surface compaction
- Improves user comfort and surface perception
3G Decompactions
3G pitches are typically filled with a mix of sand (ballast layer) and rubber crumb (performance layer). The performance layer will compact through use.
Regular Decompaction of the infill is vital in maintaining the surface performance levels and extending the usable life of the pitch.
- Lifts, loosens and decompacts the infill
- Regulates infill levels
- Strengthens the support of the carpet pile
- Improves surface performance
- Helps to regulate drainage and porosity
- Improves distribution of infill
- Reduces surface compaction
- Improves user comfort and surface perception
- Extends the usable life of the surface
Vegetation Treatments
Due to their outdoor location, most surfaces will develop moss and weed growth if left untreated, particularly around the perimeter.
Manual / mechanical removal, supported by the application of chemicals where required, is the ideal way to target vegetation.
- Removal of weeds and moss can be completed by hand or with specialist machinery
- Perimeter treatments effectively control the enroachment of moss and weeds onto the playing surface
- Chemicals can be applied to treat areas of vegetation growth
- Proactive approach
- Effective reulation of vegetation levels
- Playing characteristics preserved
- Improves user comfort and surface perception
Drag Brushing
Regular Drag Brushing using suitable machinery is the basis of a good maintenance regime, and should be implemented immediately on handover.
The carpet pile flattens through player footfall, while infill is displaced with use.
- Lifts and recovers the carpet pile
- Routine debris and leaf collection
- Directional brushing appropriate to your carpet system
- Regulates infill distribution
- Promotes carpet pile recovery
- Helps to regulate drainage and porosity
- Extends the usable life of the surface
Leaf Clearing
Protect your artificial sports surface from the effects of leaf debris with our Leaf Clearing service – a seasonal extra for your MatchFit® maintenance programme
- Clear & Collect
- Clear to Edge
