Secondary drainage

Services

Keeping surfaces playable

Secondary drainage systems intercept surface water and convey it rapidly to the lateral drains of the primary system. This ensures that playing surfaces are usable as soon as possible following heavy rainfall.

Typical secondary drainage operations include sand slitting, gravel/lytag/sand banding and ground breaking. We have developed our own specialist machinery to carry out all of these operations, as well as subsurface aeration and sand top dressing. All machinery is fitted with low ground pressure tyres to minimise compaction.
