Turfcare Solutions

What Turfcare Solutions does

Solutions+ (formerly Turfcare Solutions) is an Australian specialist contractor delivering sports turf construction, integrated landscape and public-realm maintenance, and event-day operational services. Founded in 1993 and rebranded to Solutions+ in 2024, the company operates from six offices across Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast, Melbourne and Geelong, serving local councils, educational institutions, sporting clubs and property developers along Australia's east coast.

The core service stack spans greenfield and renewal sports field construction, parks and streetscape landscaping, and long-duration grounds maintenance contracts, supplemented by on-site event-day support for sporting venues. Technical differentiation rests on 30+ years of domain experience, an in-house apprenticeship and traineeship program, specialised turf management equipment, and a smart irrigation capability that pairs weather-based scheduling with a mobile application for remote control. Industry recognition through multiple 2023-2025 Landscape Association and Parks & Leisure Australia awards reinforces brand standing within Australian municipal procurement.

Revenue is generated through a mix of competitive-tender construction projects with councils and developers and recurring maintenance and event-day contracts, with custom project-based pricing and no standardised tiers. Privately held with no disclosed institutional ownership, the company is currently expanding its client footprint through strategic partnerships with Central Coast Football, Western Sydney Wanderers FC, Stockland and BESIX Watpac across major precincts including The Gables Sports Precinct, Lake Foreshore and Wanderers Football Park.

Direct peers

• Green by Nature: Australia's largest specialist landscape and sports turf services provider, offering integrated grounds maintenance, sports field construction and turf management to councils, schools and developers. Most directly comparable to Solutions+ in terms of full-service integrated delivery model and east-coast council customer base.
• Glascott Landscape & Civil: Australian landscape construction and civil contractor with capability across sports field, park and civic landscape delivery. Comparable to Solutions+ on the construction/civil side of large precinct projects, with overlapping council and developer customer base.
• Outscape: Australian landscape design, construction and maintenance provider serving councils, developers and commercial clients. Comparable integrated service offering with multi-state footprint, competing for similar tender scopes in landscape construction and grounds maintenance.

Broad incumbents

• Programmed: Large ASX-listed Australian outsourced services provider with a facilities maintenance and groundskeeping division serving councils, education and commercial clients. Comparable on the maintenance/grounds services side, with broader portfolio but less sport-turf specialisation than Solutions+.
• Downer EDI: ASX-listed Australian infrastructure and facilities services group with significant landscape and open-space maintenance operations. Competes on large council and developer contracts but operates as a broad incumbent across transport, utilities and facilities rather than as a sports-turf specialist.

Others

• Rain Bird Australia: Global manufacturer of irrigation systems with Australian operations. Solutions+ integrates Rain Bird controllers, sprinklers and weather-based scheduling technology into its sports field irrigation installations, making Rain Bird a key technology supplier in the value chain rather than a competitor.
• StrathAyr: Australian-grown turf producer and supplier to the sports turf and landscape industries. Related ecosystem participant — Solutions+ purchases turf varieties such as Santa Ana and Kikuyu from suppliers like StrathAyr rather than competing directly, but StrathAyr's product quality and pricing directly affect Solutions+'s project economics.
