Sport Courts
The Build Process

Four Phases to Your Court

01

Site Evaluation & Sport Selection

We assess your property for optimal court placement considering drainage, sun orientation, noise impact on neighbors, and visual integration with existing landscaping. Together we determine which sports your court will support — basketball, tennis, pickleball, street hockey, or multi-sport combinations — and select the appropriate dimensions and surface type.

02

Engineering & Base Construction

Proper sport court construction begins below the surface. We excavate to a minimum twelve-inch depth, install geotextile fabric to prevent base contamination, and build up compacted aggregate in controlled lifts. The asphalt or concrete playing surface is laser-graded to ensure true ball bounce and positive drainage. This base work is invisible but constitutes the majority of a court's longevity.

Surface & Line Application

Acrylic sport surfacing is applied in multiple coats for consistent texture, cushion, and color. We offer the full spectrum of playing surface options from standard hardcourt to cushioned systems that reduce joint stress. Court lines are laid with precision for regulation play. Custom colors and logos are available for families who want a personal touch.

Equipment & Landscape Integration

Goals, nets, posts, and lighting are installed to manufacturer specifications. We then address the court perimeter — integrating retaining walls, planting beds, fencing, and drainage channels so the court feels like a designed element of your property rather than an afterthought. The finished court is a space where sport and landscape architecture coexist seamlessly.

Multi-Sport Design

One Court, Many Games

The most popular residential court configuration combines basketball and pickleball on a single surface. Our multi-sport layouts use contrasting line colors and strategic equipment placement to maintain clean sight lines for each sport without visual clutter.

Standard Acrylic

Standard Acrylic

The industry standard for residential and commercial courts. Excellent ball response, consistent texture, and available in dozens of colors. Resurfacing interval: 5-8 years.

Cushioned Acrylic

Cushioned Acrylic

Multiple rubber layers beneath the acrylic surface absorb impact and reduce joint fatigue. Ideal for families with players of all ages. Preferred for tennis and pickleball.

Modular Tile

Modular Tile

Interlocking polypropylene tiles that install over existing hard surfaces. Excellent drainage, low maintenance, and available in virtually any color combination. Good for hockey and basketball.

"Our kids play on the court every single day after school. The neighbors' kids come over too. It has become the gathering spot for the entire street. Best investment we have made in this house by a wide margin."

What Lies Beneath Makes the Difference

The playing surface of a sport court receives all the attention, but the base beneath it determines how long that surface remains true. In New England, where frost penetrates twenty-four to thirty-six inches into the ground each winter, base construction is the single most important variable in court longevity and performance.
