Tennis Court Coatings: Estimating Your Resurfacing Cost

Tennis court construction is a costly undertaking, so if you have a court, resurfacing is a necessary step in prolonging your investment.  The good news is that a court should only need to be resurfaced every five to seven years.  Acrylic tennis court surfaces are very durable and hold up extremely well in all environments, from cold and snowy climates to blistering hot temperatures and humid conditions.   

The key is to maintain your surface and perform general cleaning and easy crack repair steps between complete surfacing projects.  Sweeping and rinsing off dirt and debris can extend the life of the coatings by minimizing abrasion of hard particles beneath scuffing of the players’ feet.  Using trowel grade acrylic crack sealants can help to keep water from flowing into the base and loosening the compacted gravel that is supporting the pavement structure.  Some manufacturers even make colored sealants to blend in with the existing surface colors for added convenience and aesthetic value. 

For additional help, there are tennis court maintenance manuals available on the web, which can also be acquired directly from acrylic sports surfacing manufacturers.  They offer easy to follow instructions for not only contractors, but for homeowners and maintenance crews.  Outdoor court facilities actually benefit from the natural rinsing from rains and blowing of winds, to limit the build-up of dirt and debris.  You will find that maintaining your court surface consumes much less time than many other household chores.

One of the most popular questions, “how much does is cost to resurface my tennis court”, can be answered by contacting a manufacturer of sport surfacing materials.  An average cost range can be anywhere from $.45 to $.70 per square foot.  If your surface is in poor condition and needs lots of patching and repairs, it will probably be on the upper end of the cost scale.  The manufacturer can put you in touch with a reputable resurfacing company in your area to provide you with a current tennis court resurfacing cost, based on your specific situation.  This will likely return your court to a “like new” condition and extend the life and playing quality of your court for years to follow.
