Why Us

Why Charlotte Sports Courts?

One process, one point of contact, and a written scope before any work is booked, for every court type on this site.

Site Visit Before Any Estimate

A builder assesses the ground and drainage in person before a single number is written down.

Itemised Estimates by Phase

Base prep, surfacing, fencing, lighting, and line marking are each priced as separate line items.

Drainage Designed Into the Base

Soil conditions and slope are assessed so drainage is built in from the start, not corrected later.

Full Scope, One Enquiry

New builds, resurfacing, conversions, fencing, and lighting are all handled under the same process.

Final Walkthrough Before Sign-Off

The finished court is checked against the agreed scope and dimensions before the job is closed out.

Common Problems

What goes wrong, and how it gets fixed

Each of these failure modes comes from a different part of the build. Catching them early is cheaper than fixing them later.

Poor Drainage Base

Charlotte’s clay-heavy soil holds moisture. A base laid without a drainage check pools water and cracks within a few seasons.

Drainage-First Site Prep

The builder grades the site, corrects the slope, and compacts the sub-base so water sheds cleanly after every rain.

Spreading Cracks

Small surface cracks let moisture in. Left unpatched, they widen until the base layer fails and a full rebuild is the only fix.

Early Crack Repair

A surface inspection identifies crack depth and coating wear so patch repair or a full recoat stops damage before it reaches the base.

Wrong Court Footprint

A court sized or oriented without a site measurement often ends up too small or awkwardly placed for the intended sport.

Measured Layout First

The builder measures the usable footprint and confirms orientation before any surface or line marking is chosen.

Lump-Sum Quotes

Vague quotes that bundle site prep, surfacing, and fencing together hide where costs are concentrated until work has started.

Phase-by-Phase Estimate

Every estimate breaks out base prep, acrylic coating, fencing, lighting, and line marking as separate line items before anything is booked.

How It Works

Three steps from enquiry to a finished court

  1. 01

    Submit Your Enquiry

    Tell us the site location, the sport you want, and any existing surface, the builder takes it from there.

  2. 02

    Get an On-Site Evaluation

    A local builder visits to assess the ground, drainage, and usable footprint, then puts the full scope in writing.

  3. 03

    Review, Build & Walk Through

    Once the itemised estimate is approved, the build proceeds and a final walkthrough confirms the court matches the agreed scope.

Who We Serve

The right service depends on who is using the court

Backyard builds, shared HOA facilities, and commercial courts each have different base requirements and use levels.

  • Homeowners

    Homeowners who want a backyard court for family use or casual play. We arrange site measurement, drainage assessment, and a full build covering base prep, surface coating, and sport-specific line marking, sized to the actual yard.

  • HOA Boards & Community Managers

    HOA boards and community managers responsible for shared court facilities used by residents daily. We arrange a base inspection, multi-sport layout, UV-stable acrylic coating, perimeter fencing, and lighting so the court is fully operational at handover.

  • Commercial Property Developers & Managers

    Commercial developers and facility managers adding or restoring courts at schools, gyms, or mixed-use properties. We arrange the full scope, new slab, resurfacing, fencing, and lighting, under one written estimate before any work is booked.

Common Questions

Questions about getting a court built or restored

Do I need site preparation before building a court?

Yes. A court needs a stable, level base with proper drainage so the surface stays playable and does not settle unevenly. Skipping prep is the most direct cause of pooling water, surface cracks, and a court that feels off underfoot within the first few seasons.

How do I know if a court needs resurfacing or a full replacement?

Small cracks, faded lines, and a worn top coat usually point to resurfacing. Widespread cracking, sinking spots, or standing water after rain typically mean the base needs more work. A surface inspection determines which applies before any estimate is written.

Can one court be set up for more than one sport?

Yes. A multi-sport layout uses regulation striping for basketball, pickleball, and tennis on a single surface. The builder sizes the court to the available space and marks each sport’s lines in a distinct color so they are easy to read during play.

What is included in the written estimate?

The estimate itemises every phase separately, base preparation, acrylic surfacing, fencing, lighting, and line marking. Nothing is bundled into a lump sum, so you can see exactly where costs sit before any work is booked or any commitment is made.
