About this Service
Tennis court construction across Virginia handles residential backyards, HOA common areas, school campuses, and commercial properties from Northern Virginia metro areas to Richmond, Charlottesville, and coastal Hampton Roads. Clay-heavy ground and freeze-thaw cycles require proper drainage planning and 4-inch concrete or asphalt base work to prevent cracking and standing water.
Asphalt bases cure faster and suit tighter budgets, while concrete slabs offer better long-term crack resistance in areas with poor drainage. Both need perimeter drainage and minimum 2% slope to move water off the surface.
Regulation singles courts measure 78 feet by 27 feet, doubles courts 78 by 36 feet, with 12-foot side clearance and 21-foot end clearance. Spring and fall construction windows run March through May and September through November before summer heat or winter cold affect curing.
