Client: Chester Golf Club.
Project:  Tidal river outlet and fairway drainage
Design: Duncan Ross Ltd

Duncan Ross has worked for a number of years for
Chester Golf Club, the most recent project working
on the outlet system. The problem faced by the golf
club was that the existing outlet system was too high
to achieve suitable [fall].  Work involved the design
and implementation of a completely new system, with
additional work including fairway drainage.



Client: Upton-By-Chester Golf Club
Project: Fairway Drainage
Design: Turf Trax Ltd

Duncan Ross often works to other Company’s designs.  Turf Trax Ltd introduced Duncan Ross to the Upton-By-Chester Golf Club and in the first instance installed a drainage system to their design.  Duncan Ross has since performed further work for Upton-By-Chester Golf Club on a regular basis.  In addition Upton-By-Chester Golf Club have recommended our Company to various other Clubs.


Client:  Gathurst Golf Club
Project:  Fairway Drainage

We have been working with the Club for over 10 years improving ground conditions over the course, in 2005 we have completed drainage works on 12th , 16th and 17th Fairways plus improvements to 4th Fairway as below:

Problem:- Surface water logging caused by large build up of thatch, which created an impervious layer.

Treatments:-
  1. Scarifying and removal of debris.
  2. Hollow tine fairways to depth of 100mm and remove cores.
  3. Topdressing with medium fine sand.
  4. Drag mat fairway to work sand into cores
  5. Apply Fertiliser.
  6. Vertidrain after 4 weeks to remove compaction.
