WB Rubber installs artificial turf for football fields, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, and multi-sport athletic complexes across Texas. SportTurf in 15-foot-wide rolls with base preparation, infill, and complete installation included.
Full-size and practice field turf for football and soccer programs. Base prep, proper drainage specification, and infill for athletic performance and player safety.
Artificial turf for baseball infields, training facilities, and multi-purpose diamond areas. Reduces maintenance costs while keeping the playing surface consistent regardless of weather.
Athletic facilities that host multiple sports benefit from artificial turf that handles varied movement patterns and equipment. We install for multi-sport use with the base spec and infill appropriate for the full range of activities.
Our SportTurf comes in 15-foot-wide rolls with cuts up to 500 feet per roll. For large field installations, we plan seam placement to minimize visibility and maximize structural integrity of the finished surface.
Sports field turf requires more precise base work than residential applications. We grade to drainage spec, compact the aggregate base, and ensure the finished surface drains at the correct rate to handle Texas rain events.
Infill type and depth affect player performance, safety, and heat retention on athletic fields. We spec and install infill based on the sport, the athletic program's requirements, and any performance standards applicable to the facility.
Artificial turf has replaced natural grass on athletic fields across Texas for practical reasons. Natural grass in the Texas climate requires significant irrigation, aeration, and seeding maintenance to stay playable through the summer. Fields that host multiple sports or run year-round programming cannot sustain that maintenance schedule without the surface degrading. Artificial turf eliminates that maintenance cycle and keeps the field consistent regardless of season or use frequency.
WB Rubber installs sports field turf for school athletic programs, municipal recreational facilities, and private sports complexes across our Texas service area. We serve school districts and athletic programs in Harris County, Brazos County, and surrounding regions. Our SportTurf product comes in 15-foot-wide rolls with cuts up to 500 feet, which handles the dimensions of standard athletic fields.
Every sports field installation starts with base preparation. We excavate the existing surface to the appropriate depth, grade the subgrade for drainage, and install and compact an aggregate base layer to the specification required for the field's traffic load and drainage requirements. Sports field base prep is more involved than residential turf base work, and we do not cut corners on it. A poorly prepared base causes field settlement, drainage failure, and turf surface irregularities that affect player safety.

Infill is the material spread across the turf surface after installation that supports the blade, provides cushioning, and affects performance characteristics on the field. Infill selection is more consequential for athletic fields than for commercial landscape turf because it directly affects how players interact with the surface.
Crumb rubber infill is the traditional choice for athletic fields and provides good cushioning and blade support. Silica sand infill is denser and provides a firmer playing surface preferred by some sports programs. Organic infill options including cork and coconut fibers are available for facilities that prefer non-rubber infill materials. Each type has different heat retention characteristics, which is a meaningful consideration for Texas fields that host games in August and September.
We spec infill based on the sport, the program's performance requirements, any applicable athletic association standards, and the facility's heat management goals. For school athletic programs in Harris County and Brazos County, we work with facilities staff to select infill that meets both athletic performance requirements and any district or regulatory standards. Call to discuss your field's specific infill requirements as part of the overall project quote.
