Mike Parent joins J&D Turf

Mike Parent, president of H&K Sports Fields, a Wisconsin-based athletic field construction company, has joined the J&D Turf team.

J&D Turf is an operational division of Advanced Turf Solutions. With Parent on board, J&D Turf plans to expand its sports field consulting, renovation, construction and maintenance services into Wisconsin by adding a crew of qualified field technicians based in Milwaukee this spring. In anticipation of this expansion, the company has purchased most of H&K Sports Fields operational assets.

“J&D Turf has enjoyed working together with H&K Sports Fields on several projects over the last few years. Bringing Mike and the H&K Sports Fields brand to J&D Turf will be beneficial for the employees and customers of both companies,” said Jamie Mehringer, president of J&D Turf.

Both companies have shared a commitment to building safe, playable and aesthetically pleasing athletic surfaces and providing exceptional service from design through project completion. With the expansion, J&D Turf will have service teams in Missouri, Indiana and Wisconsin.

“H&K Sports Fields has earned a great reputation for designing and building sports fields that become a source of pride for local communities,” said Parent. “I look forward to continuing to build on that reputation and offering our customers an even higher level of product selection and services as J&D Turf.”
