Same Slab, New Sport
One existing slab, up to four regulation pickleball courts, assessed, coated, and line-marked to spec.
What Goes Wrong
The shortcuts that look fine on day one show up fast once play starts.
Painting pickleball lines over unrepaired cracks lets water enter the sub-base, widening those cracks through Richmond’s freeze-thaw cycles.
The written surface assessment documents every crack; sub-base movement is repaired before any acrylic coating is applied.
Cutting net post sleeve holes into a freshly coated surface breaks the acrylic seal and creates entry points for standing water.
Net post sleeves are set in concrete during the repair phase, before the acrylic recoat, so the finished surface stays sealed.
Using the same color for pickleball and tennis lines makes the kitchen boundary and service box indistinguishable during play.
Pickleball lines are chosen to contrast clearly with any remaining tennis lines, which are painted over or left in a neutral tone.
A conversion scoped without checking surface slope can leave standing water on the court after rain, accelerating delamination.
Drainage slope across the converted surface is verified at the final walkthrough before the project is signed off.
Conversion Scope
From a single backyard court to a multi-court HOA facility, the scope is set by what the existing slab actually needs.
One pickleball court marked on an existing tennis slab, with net post sleeves and a full acrylic recoat in your chosen colors.
Two pickleball courts arranged end-to-end on a standard tennis slab, maximising play space without a side-by-side net conflict.
Up to four regulation pickleball courts fitted side by side on a 78-by-36-foot slab, the maximum layout for a standard tennis court.
Crack patching, sub-base repair where needed, and a fresh acrylic colour coating scoped from the written surface assessment.
Sleeves set in concrete before the acrylic coat goes down.
Kitchen lines, sidelines, and baselines to USA Pickleball dimensions.
Residential and community facility conversions both handled.
Why Choose Us
Accountability at every stage, from the first site visit to the final walkthrough.
The on-site surface evaluation is documented in writing, so the estimate reflects what the slab actually needs.
Base prep, sleeve installation, acrylic recoat, and line marking are listed as separate line items, no hidden bundling.
Kitchen lines, net post alignment, and drainage slope are all confirmed on-site before the project is closed out.
We handle backyard courts, HOA facilities, and school sites across Chesterfield, Henrico, and Goochland counties.
Whether the slab needs a full conversion or just a recoat and reline, both scopes are handled through the same process.
