Court Build
From raw ground to a finished, playable court, graded, drained, surfaced, and lined.
What Goes Wrong
The failure modes below are predictable and avoidable when each stage is done in the right order.
Clay-heavy soil that is not excavated and compacted shifts under load, causing the slab to crack within a season or two.
The builder excavates to stable ground and compacts a stone sub-base before any concrete or asphalt is poured.
A base poured without a measured drainage slope traps water on the surface, creating puddles and accelerating surface wear.
The site is graded to a consistent slope so water clears the playing area and the surrounding run-off zone after rain.
South Texas UV exposure degrades coatings that are applied too thin or without the correct cure interval between passes.
The builder applies acrylic in the specified number of passes, holding the required cure interval before each recoat.
Marking lines without checking total footprint leaves courts short of run-off clearance, making the layout non-regulation.
A site measurement confirms the full 7,200 sq ft footprint, playing area plus run-off, before excavation begins.
Scope of Work
Every stage from raw ground to a signed-off, playable surface is scoped in the written estimate.
Confirms the full footprint, 78 by 36 feet of playing area plus run-off clearance, before any ground is broken.
The site is excavated, leveled, and sloped so water drains clear of the playing surface and surrounding clearance zone.
A compacted stone sub-base is laid first, then a concrete slab or asphalt base is poured to a consistent, stable depth.
Color acrylic coating is applied in multiple passes with cure intervals between layers for durability under South Texas UV.
Regulation baselines, service boxes, and sidelines are marked; net posts are set in concrete at the correct height and tension.
Concrete-set fence posts are sized for local wind exposure, with a gate included and checked during the final walkthrough.
Full build on a private residential lot or side yard.
Single or multi-court builds for shared community facilities.
Regulation courts for school campuses and club properties.
Why Choose Us
Business-level assurance on process, scope, and accountability, from first site visit to final sign-off.
The itemised estimate lists base prep, surfacing, fencing, and line marking as separate line items, no surprises mid-build.
A site visit checks drainage and ground conditions before any scope or estimate is put in writing.
Surface flatness, drainage run-off, net tension, and gate operation are all checked with you before the job is closed.
We arrange builds on backyard lots, HOA facilities, school campuses, and commercial properties across the San Antonio area.
Builders familiar with San Antonio’s clay soil and South Texas UV conditions scope the sub-base and coating work accordingly.
The Process
01
We schedule a site visit to check drainage and confirm the full footprint fits the site.
02
You receive an itemised estimate covering grading, base, surfacing, fencing, and line marking before any work is booked.
03
The builder completes each stage in sequence, then walks through surface, drainage, and net with you before sign-off.
