Court Build
A fully graded, coated, and regulation-striped court that drains well and holds up through Houston summers.
Built Right vs. Built Fast
Clay-heavy Houston soil shifts with moisture, so an ungraded base settles unevenly and cracks the surface within a season.
The site is graded and compacted before any base material is placed, removing the movement that causes cracking.
A flat slab holds standing water after rain, which degrades the acrylic coating and makes the surface slippery and unsafe.
A measured cross-slope is built into the base so water runs off the playing surface rather than pooling at the center.
Standard paint fades quickly under Houston’s UV load and offers no cushion or grip, leading to early recoating costs.
Multiple layers of UV-stable acrylic are applied once the base cures, holding color and texture through heat and humidity.
Net posts driven into soil without concrete footings shift over time, throwing net height off regulation and requiring reset work.
Posts are set in concrete footings at the correct spacing so the net holds regulation 34-inch center height long-term.
Scope of Work
Every stage from raw ground to a playable, regulation court, handled by a local builder we arrange for your site.
Ground is excavated, graded, and compacted to remove soft spots and set the drainage slope before any base goes down.
A concrete slab or asphalt base is placed to the correct thickness, giving the acrylic surface a stable, movement-free foundation.
UV-stable acrylic is applied in multiple layers over the cured base, delivering consistent bounce and grip across the playing surface.
Baseline, sidelines, centerline, and non-volley zone are marked to USA Pickleball specification once the coating fully cures.
Posts are set in concrete footings at regulation spacing, and the net is tensioned to the correct 34-inch center height.
Perimeter clearance confirmed before base work starts.
Slope checked at final walkthrough for standing-water risk.
Multi-court layouts for shared facilities and common areas.
Cracked or faded surfaces recoated to regulation standard.
Why Choose Us
Process and accountability built into every stage, from the first site visit to the final walkthrough.
Every enquiry starts with a ground and drainage assessment, no scope is written until the site has been seen in person.
Base prep, surfacing, line marking, and net setup are listed as separate line items so you see exactly what you are paying for.
We arrange local court builders with direct experience grading and compacting Greater Houston’s expansive clay sub-soils.
Net height, line accuracy, and surface drainage are verified at a formal walkthrough before the job is considered complete.
We handle single-court residential builds, HOA common-area facilities, and school or commercial multi-court projects.
The Process
