Why Us
One point of contact handles the evaluation, the estimate, and the builder, for every type of court on this site.
A local builder assesses slope, soil, and drainage in person before a single line item is committed to paper.
Base prep, surfacing, fencing, lighting, and markings are listed separately so you can see exactly what each stage costs.
The arranged builder handles site clearing through finished surface, not just the top coat applied over an unprepared base.
A final walkthrough is completed and agreed before the job is considered done, not after payment has cleared.
Raleigh, Durham, Cary, Apex, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, and surrounding communities are all within the service area.
Common Problems
Each failure below comes from skipping a specific step. The scope is built to cover that step.
A base without adequate sub-base compaction shifts under load, cracking the acrylic surface within a few seasons.
Site prep covers excavation depth, aggregate layering, and compaction before any concrete or asphalt is poured.
Red clay soil holds water; a court built without drainage grading stays soft and unusable after rain.
Drainage design sets surface slope and installs pipe to move water off the court and away from the base.
Acrylic coating applied over dirty or cracked concrete without patching peels within one season of regular play.
Resurfacing starts with pressure washing and crack filling before any new acrylic passes are applied.
A court staked without checking run-off clearances produces a playing area that feels cramped and fails regulation dimensions.
Court design stakes the layout against actual usable footprint, including boundary clearances for the sport being played.
How It Works
01
Tell us the site address, the sport, and any existing surface, we use that to arrange the right local builder for your area.
02
A builder visits to assess slope, soil, and drainage in person, then delivers an itemised written estimate covering every stage.
03
Once the written scope is agreed, the build is scheduled, and a final walkthrough is completed before the job is signed off.
