Tennis Court Builders Kent

A Tennis Court Construction Company you can depend on in Kent

Having a tennis court built is a big undertaking, and it is essential to ensure that the company carrying out the installation has the necessary experience to deliver your perfect court. At Tennis Court Construction Kent, our operatives have been constructing new courts for many years and can ensure they provide a service that will meet all your needs.

Upon you initially contacting us, we will discuss your requirements and then arrange to conduct a site visit at a convenient time. The site visit will allow us to assess where the court is to be located and ensure that all variables have been considered. These will include making sure that there is suitable drainage in place and that the location of the court is installed with best practices in mind. Whilst it is not essential, it is preferential to try and locate a newly constructed tennis court with its width from East to West. This means that the sun will not be directly in the players’ faces when playing.

Another consideration is planning. In most instances, when the court is installed within your private garden, it is not required for the actual court itself, but it can be necessary for the fence surrounding it, depending on a few variables. If, however, your property is listed, or the land where you wish the court to be constructed on requires its usage changed, then planning is likely to be needed for the actual court too. We can fully advise you on this upon our initial site visit.

The ground level is also another consideration that we will take into account. Whilst your newly installed tennis court will be perfectly flat upon completion, it does not mean the proposed area has to initially be level. We have been able to install courts on uneven and sloped areas; all it means is that we will have to carry out more levelling, and excavation, which is common practice for us.

We can also take care of any necessary drainage, landscaping, and groundwork. All operatives at Tennis Court Construction Kent have vast experience to ensure that your newly constructed court and its surroundings look stunning, and will give you years of pleasure.

Does a tennis court increase home value?

A tennis court is a fantastic addition to any property, and one question we get asked a lot is, ‘will it increase the value of my home?’ After speaking with various estate agents, and property developers, the overall opinion is that adding a tennis court certainly does increase the value of a property. A well-constructed and maintained tennis court is a great addition, and a potential buyer may even choose your home over another where no court is installed.

Obviously, home value is something to consider when deciding if to have a new court installed. Still, there is no denying that there are also so many advantages of having your very own tennis court to use at your leisure. The health benefits for you and your family are one. Also, the social side is another big factor. What better way of spending your free time than playing your favourite game with loved ones and friends!

Tennis Court Lifespan and Maintenance

The average lifespan of a tennis court is 25 years, and to ensure it lasts for as long as possible regular maintenance is required, but this does not have to be overwhelming. Just a few simple bits of equipment and a little knowledge will ensure your court is kept in fine condition. The main thing to remember is that the more regularly you can tend to your court, the less work will be required. One of the most significant problems with a neglected tennis court is the build-up of algae, which can become unsightly and a hazard to players; this can be removed with a stiff brush and a pressure washer, but always ensure the pressure washer is not on too higher setting so as to leave marks. It is also always a good idea to ensure that any debris is picked up, including leaves, twigs, rubbish, and any foreign objects. Also, if food or drink is spilled on a tennis court surface, it should be cleaned immediately. If acidic, it can damage the surface.

Preparing your tennis court for the winter

Winter preparation is another consideration. To protect your court as much as possible during the winter period, a few simple tricks will help. Firstly if you are sure you will not use your court throughout the winter period, it is advisable to remove the net. Doing so and keeping it indoors will ensure its longevity. If you may use your court during winter, then at a very minimum, slacken the net off while not in use. Next, ensure any build-up of leaves or other similar items are removed. Doing this will mean that any frost or snow will not cause the leaves to transfer any colour and leave unsightly stains on your court. These simple steps will give your court a fighting chance of surviving for years to come. If your court is old and not just newly installed, it is advisable to fill any holes or cracks. Doing so will help with water getting into these gaps and freezing, causing the cracks to expand even more.
