Business Description
Innovation is at the core of our operations, setting us apart as the only company in Maine dedicated almost exclusively to the construction, renovation, and maintenance of athletic fields, representing 97% of our business. Our specialization has positioned us as the go-to resource for municipalities, school systems, and private institutions seeking expert-level care for sports surfaces. We are also Maine’s sole producer of infield material for baseball and softball fields and are routinely specified in new school construction plans as the designated supplier and installer. Our role in evaluating athletic field safety across the state underscores not only our technical expertise but also the trust placed in us to ensure children are playing on surfaces that are safe and professionally maintained. From a technological standpoint, our innovation is evident in the proprietary infield mix we’ve developed; a carefully calibrated blend of sand, silt, and clay designed to meet the specific performance and safety demands of baseball and softball fields. We’ve partnered with a local aggregate company to produce and deliver this material efficiently, enhancing both product quality and logistics. Additionally, we provide a specialized infield cleanup service, using a combination of a sod cutter and a Fraise mower; an advanced piece of equipment that removes surface layers with precision. We are currently the only company in Maine with a Fraise mower, giving us a unique advantage in field renovation and restoration services. These innovations reflect our commitment to combining deep industry knowledge with cutting-edge equipment and custom solutions tailored to the needs of Maine’s athletic communities. Our core values are: Safe, Playable, and Aesthetically Pleasing. Safety is our top priority, especially since approximately 80% of our clients are school systems. A field must be safe for student-athletes before anything else. The second value is playability. Even if a field is safe, it must also be functional: bases, field dimensions, and layout must meet the standards of the sport being played. Lastly, we value aesthetics. When a school hosts a game, it’s similar to inviting another community over. A well-maintained, attractive field makes a strong impression and creates a sense of pride for players, families, and spectators.
