Testimonials
Electrosonic Ltd
Robert Webb the Facilities Manager stated that "due to the adverse weather conditions Electrosonic had 11 inches of snow in the car parks (220 spaces in total) effectively closing the facility to 240 staff. I contacted Grassform Hire and they put in place an Emergency Plan on the day to clear the snow. Using their machinery and dedicated and skilled staff, working safely they cleared the area which enabled Electrosonic to trade the next day". The Finance Director quoted that "the team was on-time, polite, professional and would recommend them to anybody".
Wheathampstead Cricket Club
"On behalf of WCC I would like to say thanks for the excellent work carried out by Simon and his team. We are pleased with the work and assuming we get good grass growth before the cold weather sets in we stand some chance of playing cricket on a nice flat wicket next year."
Coombe Hill Golf Club
"365 days a year golf course access." The club's course manager Sean Whipp commented by stating that "feedback from the club members has been excellent and has exceeded their expectations. With Grassform we planned the route to hug the fairways and the path tends to go through trees where possible to reduce the visual impact." Club Secretary David Cromie added "Grassform enabled the members to continue playing the course throughout the build phase without disruption, and after only three months we had a buggy path that is both visually and environmentally sympathetic to the course, which can now be used 365 days a year."
Moor Park Golf Club
Stuart Bertram concludes by saying "We have achieved our aim of gaining a more consistent bunker lie but with a slight increase in difficulty for our members through Grassform's reshaping and rebuilding expertise."
West Ham FC
Doug Robertson, who has been with West Ham United for eleven years since joining from the Scottish RFU at Murrayfield, has nothing but praise for the quality and expertise shown by Grassform.
"I am very happy with the professionalism shown by Grassform. For a company that we had not used previously we have found them to be very courteous to any extra tasks not in their original remit, such as forming and shaping the banks at Little Heath.
I found that the foreman was able to make on the spot decisions and hence the project was completed ahead of schedule with pitches ready for our pre-season training needs." Doug continues in saying, "the company is communicative and flexible enough to encourage input from us as the client, meaning that the finished result was exact to our requirements.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Grassform to other clubs and facilities, and in fact I already have done so" he concludes.

Exceptional standards
David Withers, managing director of Ransomes Jacobsen, commented: "This has been a great project, and we are so pleased with the result, which reflects the quality of the team we put together.
Our main contractor Grassform did a fantastic job and sitting here in my office on a sunny February morning I can see that the course is looking superb. The growing in is going well and the sward is definitely getting thicker.
It's obvious that Grassform did a fantastic job and we can now fully appreciate their efforts and that of the team that was assembled to produce it." David continues: "We have taken the decision to allow the course to grow in through to September and then celebrate the opening with an event to thank everyone who participated in its construction. It is a superb addition to the facilities we have here at Ipswich and will enable us to demonstrate our machines as well as our acknowledged environmental leadership."
Mark Dunning, managing director of Grassform, said of the project at Ransomes Jacobsen: "It was a pleasure and a joy to work with both a client and architect whose aim was to achieve the best practice, utilise sustainable materials and a first class result. Grassform Plant Hire Ltd has delivered all three on time and within budget."
