Professional Tennis Court Construction in Hudson, Florida
Tennis court planning for residential and commercial properties, based on the available site, intended play, drainage, surface system, and selected amenities.
Tennis Court Construction Planning
A tennis court needs enough room for the playing lines and appropriate run-off space, along with access, drainage, setbacks, and any fencing or lighting. Those conditions should be reviewed before a surface or layout is selected.
When regulation play is requested, dimensions and lines can be based on current tennis guidance. Surface orientation, grades, drainage, coating, texture, and color are adjusted to the property and approved design.
A proposal can include site evaluation, excavation, base and drainage work, asphalt or concrete, acrylic coating, line striping, net posts, fencing, windscreens, lighting, or seating. Permit and approval responsibilities are identified for the property. Our family paving heritage began in Tennessee in 1960, and the company is now based in Hudson.

Our Tennis Court Construction Process
Site Evaluation & Court Orientation
Review the usable area, access, existing grades, drainage, neighboring uses, and intended play. Orientation and further testing can be discussed for the actual site.
Permits & Property Requirements
Permit, utility, zoning, and HOA requirements vary by property. The proposal identifies known requirements and who is responsible for each approval.
Excavation & Drainage Installation
Excavate and install the approved drainage and grading scope. Drainage details depend on the existing elevations, soils, discharge path, and selected court system.
Base Installation & Compaction
Place and compact the specified aggregate base in the required lifts, then grade it to the approved court and drainage plan.
Surface Installation
Install the specified asphalt or concrete surface. Thickness, lifts, reinforcement, joints, and compaction depend on the approved design.
Curing Period & Post Installation
Allow the surface to age or cure according to the surface and coating manufacturers' requirements. Net posts, fencing, or lighting can be coordinated with the approved sequence.
Professional Coating System
Apply the selected coating system after the surface is ready. Coat count, texture, and colors follow the approved product and project scope.
Line Work & Final Details
Install the approved line layout, net system, and selected equipment, then review the completed scope and provide relevant surface-care guidance.
