Graded and compacted base layer before any surface is poured.

Acrylic Color Coat

Multi-coat acrylic finish suited to Piedmont Triad humidity and freeze-thaw cycles.

Regulation Line Marking

Sport-specific striping to regulation dimensions for every court type.

Drainage Slope Planning

Slope and drainage assessed upfront to prevent pooling and heave.

Perimeter Fencing

Galvanized steel posts set in concrete footings with gate hardware included.

LED Court Lighting

Fixtures positioned for even coverage without glare after dark.

Why Us

Why Greensboro Sports Courts?

One coordinated process from first call to final sign-off means no gaps between contractors and no surprises mid-build.

No Remote Guesswork on Base Conditions

Every enquiry starts with an in-person drainage and space evaluation, not a phone estimate based on photos.

Written Scope Before Anything Is Booked

You receive an itemised estimate with base prep, surfacing, fencing, lighting, and striping as separate line items.

Local Knowledge of Red Clay & Freeze-Thaw

Every assessment accounts for Piedmont Triad soil conditions, humidity, and seasonal surface stress.

Full Build Under One Scope

Sub-base through acrylic coating and regulation striping are handled by one builder, no hand-offs between separate contractors.

Signed-Off Walkthrough at Completion

A final walkthrough confirms the finished court matches the agreed scope before the job is closed out.

Common Problems

What goes wrong, and how it gets fixed

Each of these failure modes comes from a different part of the build. Catching them early keeps the scope and cost manageable.

Poor Drainage Slope

Red clay soil holds water. Without a measured drainage slope, the surface heaves and pools after rain within a few seasons.

On-Site Slope Assessment

An in-person evaluation measures slope tolerance and soil drainage before grading begins, so the base sheds water correctly.

Spreading Surface Cracks

Delaying a resurfacing assessment lets small cracks widen. What starts as a patch job can grow into a full base repair.

Early Wear Assessment

A flatness inspection determines whether crack filler and a fresh acrylic coat are enough or whether the base needs repair first.

Wrong Court Dimensions

A tennis court laid without run-off clearance, or a pickleball layout missing the non-volley zone, cannot be corrected cheaply after the pour.

Regulation Layout Review

The footprint is measured against regulation dimensions and run-off clearance requirements before any base work is agreed.

Glare from Misplaced Poles

LED fixtures installed without a layout review create uneven coverage and glare that makes evening play difficult or unsafe.

Fixture Placement Planning

Pole positions and fixture aiming are planned as part of the installation scope to deliver even, glare-free court coverage.

How It Works

Three steps from enquiry to finished court

  1. 01

    Tell Us Your Site & Sport

    Share the location, the sport you want to play, and any concerns about space or drainage, that is all we need to get started.

  2. 02

    Receive a Written Estimate

    A site visit assesses drainage and footprint, then delivers an itemized estimate before any work is booked.

  3. 03

    Sign Off the Finished Court

    Once the build is complete, a final walkthrough confirms the court matches the agreed scope before the job is closed.

Who We Serve

Courts for every property type across the Piedmont Triad

The same evaluation-to-walkthrough process applies whether the court is in a backyard or on a shared facility.

  • Homeowners

    Homeowners who want a backyard court for family use or to add a usable outdoor space to their property. We arrange site evaluation, base preparation, surface selection, and line marking, from a single pickleball court to a multi-sport layout sized to the available yard.

  • HOA Boards & Community Managers

    HOA boards and community managers responsible for shared recreational facilities that need to meet design standards and serve multiple residents. We handle full builds, resurfacing, drainage correction, fencing, and lighting for shared courts, all under one written scope.

  • Commercial Property Developers & Managers

    Commercial developers and property managers adding or restoring court facilities at apartment complexes, schools, or recreation centers. We schedule an on-site evaluation and an itemized estimate covering the project from sub-base through acrylic coating and regulation striping.

FAQs

Common questions about getting a court built

  • Do I need site prep if the yard already looks flat?

    A yard can look flat and still have slope, soft spots, or drainage problems that will cause the surface to settle or pool water. A site evaluation confirms whether the ground can support the court before any base work is scoped or priced.

  • Do we need a full new court or can the existing one be resurfaced?

    That depends on the base condition, the extent of cracking, and whether water drains correctly. If the foundation is still sound, resurfacing may be enough. Major movement, drainage trouble, or deep base damage usually points to a rebuild.

  • What happens if I delay fixing spreading cracks?

    Small cracks that are not addressed let water into the base layer. On Piedmont Triad clay soil, freeze-thaw cycles widen those cracks each season until the base itself needs replacement, a significantly larger job than early resurfacing would have been.

  • Do I need both lighting and fencing for my court?

    Not always, but they solve different problems. Lighting extends usable hours after dark; fencing keeps play contained and defines the court boundary. Both are scoped from the court layout so post positions and fixture placement work together.

  • How do I know the final cost will match the first number quoted?

    The written estimate lists base preparation, surfacing, fencing, lighting, and line marking as separate line items, and the site is evaluated before any number is given. A final walkthrough confirms the finished court matches that agreed scope before sign-off.
