Golf Course Areas
- Tees, fairways, approaches, roughs, and practice surfaces.
- Drainage and compaction issues affecting playability.
- Recovery planning after stress, flood damage, or traffic.
Renovation Focus
Better turf comes from better site decisions.
Renovation is more than spreading seed. We look at traffic, drainage, compaction, soil health, shade, irrigation, species selection, timing, and maintenance capacity before building the work plan.
Sports Surfaces
- Wear-area recovery and overseeding windows.
- Playability and safety improvements for active fields.
- Maintenance calendars shaped around seasons and events.
Residential Lawns
- Premium lawn renovation, seeding, and sod planning.
- Thin turf, bare spots, drainage, and shade challenges.
- Long-term care plans after the renovation takes hold.
Process
A renovation plan that respects the season and the surface.
The work starts with observation and ends with a practical path for establishment, maintenance, and follow-through.
-
1. Walk the Site
We review the problem areas, use patterns, drainage, soil, irrigation, shade, and maintenance history.
-
2. Choose the Right Fix
The recommendation may include aerification, soil correction, drainage work, grading, seeding, sod, fertility, or changes to the care program.
-
3. Execute and Establish
Renovation succeeds when the follow-up is realistic. We help plan watering, mowing, fertility, traffic control, and timing so the new turf can settle in.
Drainage Correction
Move water before it ruins the turf.
Wet areas, sealed surfaces, and slow-draining soils can turn good turf into a recurring repair bill. WNC Turf helps identify where the water is coming from, where it needs to go, and how to install drainage work with the least disruption possible.
- Fairway, approach, tee, rough, and lawn drainage repairs.
- Catch basins, pipe runs, gravel lines, and outlet planning.
- Renovation sequencing that protects playability and recovery.
Irrigation Repair & Planning
Water the turf you want, not the problem you already have.
Irrigation problems show up as dry spots, wet spots, weak establishment, disease pressure, wasted water, and uneven playing conditions. WNC Turf can help diagnose repairs, plan upgrades, and coordinate irrigation work around renovation timing.
- Valve, head, controller, wiring, and pipe repair planning.
- Coverage checks before seeding, sod, or recovery work.
- Scheduling guidance for grow-in, stress periods, and play.
Common Projects
Renovation work can be narrow, phased, or full scale.
Some surfaces need a targeted repair. Others need a bigger reset. WNC Turf helps choose the scope before money gets spent.
Bare and Thin Turf Recovery
Repair weak areas with the right seed, sod, soil preparation, and establishment plan.
Drainage and Compaction Improvement
Address wet, sealed, or compacted areas before rebuilding the surface above them.
High-Traffic Turf Repair
Rebuild worn areas on fields, range tees, practice areas, entrances, and lawn corridors.
Seasonal Recovery Planning
Time renovation around play, events, weather, and maintenance windows.
Field Studies
Documented turf work, shown from start to finish.
Project photos help show the difference between a plan on paper and a surface that actually establishes, fills in, and presents well under real course conditions.
Tee Grow-In
Kenmure 9 Tee Bentgrass Grow-In
A documented 43-day transformation from prepared seedbed to a dense, striped bentgrass tee surface using Macdonald creeping bentgrass blend.
- Day 0 seedbed preparation documented April 16, 2026.
- Emergence, coverage, and refinement tracked through May.
- Finished presentation photographed May 29, 2026.
Spraying
Application work guided by turf conditions, not habit.
Spraying is part agronomy and part execution. WNC Turf can help with application planning, calibration, product timing, recovery programs, and field decisions that match the surface in front of you.
- Fertility, weed, disease, and stress-management planning.
- Sprayer setup, calibration, timing, and coverage review.
- Programs shaped around weather, growth stage, and play.
Bunker Repair
Restore bunker function before the next washout.
Bunker work is more than moving sand. Edges, drainage, slopes, entry points, contamination, and maintenance access all affect how a bunker plays and how often it fails after weather.
- Edge repair, reshaping, sand movement, and contamination cleanup.
- Drainage evaluation and washout repair planning.
- Work sequencing that preserves playability and maintenance access.
Tee Box Renovations
Level, rebuild, and establish tees that can take traffic.
Tee boxes need clean grade, firm footing, healthy turf, and traffic flow that works for the way the hole is actually played. WNC Turf can help plan and execute tee renovations from rough shaping through establishment.
- Leveling, grading, drainage, and surface preparation.
- Seed or sod planning for traffic, shade, and recovery windows.
- Phased renovation plans that keep the course moving.
