Questions

How It Works

How many pickleball courts fit on a standard tennis court?

A standard 78-by-36-foot tennis court fits up to four pickleball courts in a side-by-side layout, or two courts arranged end-to-end. The exact layout depends on your preference and how the existing net posts are positioned.

Do the old tennis lines need to be removed?

Not always. Tennis lines can be painted over with the acrylic recoat or left visible in a neutral colour. Pickleball lines are marked in a contrasting colour so the two sets of lines do not interfere with play.

What happens if I skip the surface assessment and just add lines?

Unrepaired cracks allow water into the sub-base. In Richmond’s freeze-thaw conditions, those cracks widen each winter, and the surface will need a full base repair within a few seasons, a significantly larger cost than addressing them upfront.

Can a cracked tennis court be converted, or does it need full replacement?

It depends on the cause. Cosmetic surface cracks get a patch-and-recoat scope. Cracks caused by sub-base movement require base repair first. The written assessment distinguishes between the two and prices each scope separately.

Are net post sleeves included in the conversion price?

Yes. Net post sleeves are set in concrete during the repair phase, before the acrylic coat is applied. They are listed as a separate line item in the written estimate so you can see exactly what that work costs.

Do you handle HOA and school court conversions, or only residential?

Both. We arrange conversions for backyard courts, HOA facilities, and school sites across Chesterfield, Henrico, and Goochland counties. The same on-site evaluation and written estimate process applies to every project.
