Cricket Pitch Refurbishments
At Durant Cricket, our main focus is to promote cricketing brilliance, and in order to achieve this, we provide a variety of essential cricketing services. In addition to our match pitch and training area installations, we provide refurbishment solutions for these pitches to rejuvenate older spaces.
With our thorough approach, we ensure that our cricket pitch refurbishments breathe life back into your cricketing spaces, restoring them to their prime conditions.
Our pitch refurbishments begin with taking up the original synthetic pitch to access the stone base below. We then start work on a relevelling process, ensuring a uniform and flawless playing surface. Once the base has been refurbished, we then replace any unfit surfaces, and meticulously clean any remaining debris from the site.
We also take care not to neglect netting, offering replacement cricket netting for pitches, covering the vermin skirts and batting screens as well. This full renewal of the facility ensures that your practice areas will be back up to scratch, providing the ideal training environment for players.
ECB APPROVED - Non Turf Pitch System
As of November 12th, 2024, our ‘A-Base’ Non-Turf Pitch System has received official approval from the ECB. This versatile system is designed for outdoor use, providing durable surfacing for practice areas, multi-use games areas (MUGAs), and match pitches. The ‘A-Base’ system begins with the installation of Durant Cricket’s specialised underpadding, laid over two meticulously leveled and screeded layers of porous aggregate for optimal stability and drainage. The system is then completed with the addition of our premium Durant-CW tufted surface, creating a high-performance, long-lasting pitch ready for play.
Synthetic Pitch Refurbishments
Choosing to follow through with non-turf pitch refurbishments can provide many advantages for your club, school, or organisation. With a revitalised practice area or match pitch, you provide your players with a safe and effective environment to train in, improving their overall performance and progress.
With a clean and upkept pitch, you also demonstrate your commitment to maintaining high standards, boosting the image and reputation of your cricket club. Your dedication to your players is reflected through the state of your facilities, so with a modern and well-maintained environment, you are displaying commitment and reliability.
Sports Pitch Refurbishments
Not only do cricket pitch refurbishments offer the opportunity to upgrade to the latest equipment, they also provide the chance to keep your space up to date with the latest safety regulations. This is crucial to ensure the safety and well-being of any players and participants that are getting involved.
A cleaner and more reliable environment can also lead to an improved performance in players, due to the renewed enthusiasm a fresh start and professional training area can bring cricketers.
Synthetic sports pitch refurbishments go beyond just aesthetic appeal and improvements – they bolster the functionality, playability, and safety in your cricket facility, offering a range of benefits that contribute to a more enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
