Here’s a simplified, outline timeline and process for the restoration of pitches on an existing square.
Estimated time required – as little as 1-2 days (depending on machinery and manpower available).
Since the turn of the century, machinery and expertise has enabled poor performing pitches to be renovated in as little as 1-2 days, with the restored pitch available for use the following year. The methodology utilizes a tractor mounted, surface planing device that removed the top surface up to a depth of 40mm in one pass, with the material sent down a conveyor belt to a trailer.
The three types of restoration are:
Fraise Mowing
Fraise Topping
Fraise Topping & Cultivation
