Court Installation
A regulation surface that plays true, drains cleanly, and holds up through Central Texas summers.
What Goes Wrong
Austin’s clay soil traps water under a slab, causing surface heaving and cracking within the first year.
A slope check and drainage path are mapped before excavation begins, so water clears the slab after every rain.
An existing concrete pad reused without a flatness and crack inspection produces an uneven bounce and early surface failure.
The builder runs a surface flatness check and crack inspection before any acrylic coat is applied to an existing slab.
A single-coat acrylic application fades and chips under Austin’s UV load, often within one to two seasons.
Multiple acrylic layers are applied with cure intervals between each coat, building UV resistance and a consistent playing surface.
A court sized only to the 20 ft x 44 ft playing area leaves no run-off space, making edge play unsafe and non-regulation.
The total footprint is planned to the recommended 30 ft x 60 ft minimum, giving players safe clearance on every side.
Scope of Work
Each stage of the build is scoped in the same written estimate, from ground preparation through finished surface.
The ground is graded to a controlled slope so water clears the slab and does not pool under the surface.
The builder selects and installs the base material suited to the site’s soil stability and long-term flatness requirements.
Multiple acrylic layers are applied with cure intervals, delivering a UV-resistant, consistent playing surface.
Non-volley zone, centerline, and baseline are painted to USA Pickleball specifications on the finished surface coat.
Posts are set in concrete footings at regulation spacing, with the net tensioned to 34 inches at center.
Fencing is scoped and installed in the same project when the site requires ball containment or boundary definition.
Crack and flatness check before any resurfacing begins.
Worn or faded courts recoated to regulation standard.
Multi-court layouts for shared recreation facilities.
Why Choose Us
Every job is backed by a clear written scope, an on-site evaluation, and a final walkthrough, not a verbal quote and a handshake.
Slope, soil, and drainage are assessed in person before a figure is discussed, so the estimate reflects the actual site.
The written estimate covers base prep, surfacing, fencing, and line marking, no line item is left to assumption.
Surface flatness, line accuracy, and net height are all confirmed on-site before the job is closed out.
Courts are built for homeowners, HOA facilities, schools, and commercial sites across the greater Austin area.
Existing courts that need recoating or line repainting are handled under the same written scope process.
The Process
01
Submit your site details and we arrange an on-site visit to check slope, drainage, and available footprint.
02
You receive an itemised estimate covering base preparation, acrylic surfacing, line marking, net system, and fencing.
03
The builder completes each stage in sequence, then a final walkthrough confirms every item in the written scope.
