Frequently Asked Questions

2. Sitework: Sitework is the first step in building a pickleball court.  This is the process where we remove the “Organics” and topsoil from the court area.  We will probably use an excavator and remove anything that will make the concrete unstable.  Next, we will fill in the site with gravel to make a very stable base for your court.
3. Concrete: Forming and pouring a concrete slab will be done once the site work is finished.  Rebar is used on an 18” grid, and the concrete itself will be poured 4 inches deep.
4. Surface: We will either tile or coat the surface of your court.
5. Fixtures: A fixture can be a major, minor, or non-existent part of your court.  These are things like in-ground pickleball net systems, basketball hoops, light poles, etc.  These are usually set in the concrete with bolt patterns, and then the fixtures are attached when the concrete is cured.

2. It depends on your preference and budget.

• Coatings: 1. In the Pacific Northwest, it rains a lot.  So, the concrete has to be dried before coating and kept dry during and after the coating process. 2. The concrete has to cure for 30 to 60 days before being coated. 3. Courts should be recoated every 3 to 5 years. 4. These issues make coating courts in the PNW take longer and cost more than tiles.
• Tiles: 1. PVC Tiles make for great court surfaces in the PNW. 2. They can be installed within a few days of the concrete being poured. 3. Drain well. 4. They are less expensive than coatings. 5. Have a 10 to 15-year manufacturer’s warranty.
• It’s up to you, but time and money favor Tiles in this area.

A 30’x60’ Sports Court that includes Concrete, Court Tiles, Basketball Hoop, High and Low net system for badminton and pickleball, and 4 solar lights, starts at $40,000 plus site work.
4. There is a $2,500 deposit due before we pull the building permits.  When the building permit is issued, there is a deposit due of 35% of the remaining court cost.  One week prior to the commencement of work, there is another 35% of the court cost due.  Final invoicing will be done and due when the court is finished.
