Sports Turf Topdressing

Topdressing athletic fields is a key to maintaining safe and healthy turf.  Topdressing aids thatch breakdown, increases smoothness, and helps with infiltration of surface water.  Better aeration of the rootzone due to less compaction also benefits the turfs health.  Increasing numbers of sportsturf managers have implemented topdressing programs for their football fields, soccer fields and turf areas of baseball fields.

Using a topdressing material that has the proper performance is critical.  Our staff can help with specific problems and explain the benefits of using sand-based topdressings in a maintenance plan.  All sands are not alike, so topdressing materials need to be tested so you receive the results you expect.  Each of our topdressings meet stringent guidelines to ensure quality performance.
