Hard-Court Tennis Construction
The most common type of tennis court in the U.S. is the hard-court system, known for its durability and versatility. Hard courts typically offer a medium-fast pace of play, but this can be adjusted through various methods such as surface coatings, texture, or cushioning materials, allowing for a customized playing experience. While hard courts are more expensive to install compared to other surface types, they are favored for their relatively low long-term maintenance costs.
In this geographical area, with proper care and maintenance, a well-built hard-court can last between 15 to 20 years. However, the ultimate lifespan of any hard-court is influenced by several site-specific factors such as weather conditions, soil composition, and local usage. Regular repairs and maintenance are necessary to preserve the court’s performance and aesthetic appeal. It's recommended that a hard-court be resurfaced at least every five to seven years to maintain its playability and ensure it meets the standards for both recreational and professional use.
Cushion Tennis Court Construction
The cushion system is a multi-layered rubberized surface designed to reduce the impact on an athlete's body. It offers a softer feel than a traditional hard court while still maintaining similar playability, making it ideal for those seeking added comfort and joint protection.
This surface is especially beneficial for older players or individuals with previous injuries, as it minimizes stress on the knees, hips, and back. While it is one of the more expensive options to install, it’s a worthwhile investment for long-term comfort and injury prevention.
The cushion system comes in a range of options, from economy to premium, allowing for customization based on specific needs. It's also an excellent choice for pickleball, providing the same joint-friendly support for players of all levels, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience on the court.
Clay Court Construction and Maintenance
Clay courts are known for slowing down the pace of play and providing a higher bounce on the ball, making them a popular choice for players who prefer longer rallies and a more controlled game. However, they can be more expensive in the long run due to high maintenance and refurbishment costs. Made from compressed stone materials such as shale, brick, or crushed stone, clay courts require daily attention during the playing season. This includes regular watering, rolling, and monitoring to maintain an even playing surface and optimal conditions.
At Tennis Technology, we offer a variety of clay court options, including HAR-TRU Green Clay, American Red Clay, Claytech, and European Red Clay, all designed to deliver excellent playability and durability. Additionally, we provide clay court accessories to enhance the functionality and upkeep of your court. While clay courts may require more effort to maintain, they offer a unique playing experience that many professional tournaments and players prefer.

Tennis Court Crack Repair
Court cracking is the most common problem for outdoor hard-court surfaces. While expertly designed, installed, and maintained, all asphalt and concrete surfaces will crack over time. We offer the proper repair and maintenance of all court cracking. The systems we use range from fabric bridging systems, asphalt overlays, carpet overlays, and many more.
The cheapest option for repairing cracked courts is our crack-filler installation. Crack-repair material is filled into the crack, ground down smooth, and a surface coating is installed over the patched areas. This repair is only temporary because hairline cracking will reappear once the temperature reaches fifty degrees Fahrenheit.
The most common type of crack repair we install is a fabric crack repair system. The fabric system uses flexible fabrics and adhesives to bridge over the cracks. The court is resurfaced which covers the patched areas. This crack repair system works wonders because, as the asphalt base continues to shrink, the water-proof fabric expands and contracts with the base. The crack remains covered and moisture is kept at bay. This repair will look great and will last for years. It will not solve all court cracking issues though. The best option to eliminate court cracking is to rebuild.
