FAQs
What should guide the selection of a synthetic turf system? Start with the activities the field needs to support, including competition, training, and the expected frequency of use. Those demands help determine which turf construction and system characteristics deserve the most attention. A field selected mainly for appearance may overlook how athletes and balls interact with the surface. Keystone works through the intended uses with the owner so material selection and installation planning respond to the facility’s actual athletic needs.
Why should turf seams, edges, and transitions be checked regularly? A field can show localized wear at its edges or seams before the entire playing surface needs attention. Checking those areas regularly helps identify loose material, separation, and changes at transitions to adjacent surfaces. An assessment can then establish whether a targeted repair is appropriate. Catching a small issue early gives the owner an opportunity to address it before continued activity affects more of the surrounding turf.
