Common questions about sports construction

What does full sports construction include from base to surface?

Full construction starts with design and layout, then excavation, grading and drainage so water moves off the court. We install a concrete slab or compacted gravel base, then the playing surface, either a coated and painted court or sport tiles. Hoops and line painting finish the job. Our own crews handle the base work, surfacing, hoops and lines, and we coordinate with architects, boards and municipalities from beginning to end.

Should a sport court be built on a concrete or compacted gravel base?

Both work, and the right choice depends on your site, budget and town rules. A concrete slab gives a rigid, long lasting base for painted and coated courts. A compacted gravel (stone) base drains freely, which helps in towns with impervious coverage limits, and pairs well with permeable sport tiles. We build on both across our service areas and recommend one after reviewing your yard, grading and drainage.

Can you convert or resurface an existing court instead of building new?

Yes. If the existing slab is sound, we can convert it to pickleball or a multi-sport layout, or bring it back to life with crack repair, sanding, resurfacing, fresh coatings and new line painting. If the base has shifted or the court holds water, a rebuild is usually the better long term answer. We look at the court first and tell you plainly which option makes sense for your budget.
