Initial Site Visit & Meeting

The process begins with a site visit from one of our experts to assess the site and understand your specific needs. During this visit, we discuss key considerations such as:

  • Site Conditions: We evaluate the topography, soil quality, and drainage systems to ensure optimal conditions for construction.
  • Ground Condition and Access: Access points and the surrounding environment are assessed to plan for any potential challenges.
  • Build Options: We review various build options based on your requirements and provide guidance on the most appropriate design for your project.

Once the initial site assessment is complete, our pricing team reviews the information gathered and works to recommend the most suitable products and solutions for your pitch. We factor in:

  • Site Conditions and Requirements: We consider the nature of the ground and the scope of work needed to prepare it for construction.
  • Specification: Based on the needs identified, we provide a detailed price breakdown that aligns with your budget and project scope.

Once the project pricing, schedule, and specifications are agreed upon, we move forward with the formalisation of the contract. At this stage, we:

  • Issue a signed contract.
  • Agree on a start date and ensure the payment schedule aligns with project milestones.

Before construction begins, we schedule a pre-start meeting to ensure everyone is aligned on project details. This includes:

  • Site Access: We confirm access routes for construction equipment and personnel.
  • Roles and Responsibilities: We discuss the roles of contractors, the client, and the project team.
  • Schedule Review: We run through the schedule in detail to ensure the project stays on track and within budget.

With careful management, we begin the construction phase of your astro pitch. Throughout the build:

  • We work within the confines of temporary fencing to ensure safety.
  • Regular meetings with club officials, project supervisors, or engineers are held to ensure every step is completed to the highest standards.
  • At key points in the project, we review progress to make sure the next stage only begins once all parties are satisfied.
  • We focus on ensuring that critical components such as drainage, groundworks, base construction, fencing, and surfacing meet our rigorous standards for quality and durability.

Once the project is near completion, we schedule a final sign-off meeting where the project manager will:

  • Review the entire project with the client to ensure every aspect meets expectations.
  • Provide a certificate of completion to formally hand over the project.

To ensure long-term satisfaction, JNC Premier Pitches offers a 3-month return service, where we return to the site to conduct a maintenance day. During this visit:

  • The pitch is brushed and cleaned to maintain its appearance and performance.
  • We gather feedback from the client regarding their experience with the pitch after three months of use.

This after-sales service helps us fine-tune our offerings and address any potential issues that may arise, ensuring your pitch remains in top condition.

Our commitment to quality extends beyond project completion. We ensure the pitch is built to last and that all drainage, foundations, and surfaces are designed for longevity. Our team provides ongoing maintenance advice to help keep your pitch in optimal condition, ensuring it serves its purpose for years to come.

Superior surfaces,
