Frequently asked

How much does a tennis court cost?

A new tennis court costs $108,000 to $129,600 with a basic pad or $126,000 to $151,200 with an ASBA-spec pad, for a standard 7,200 sq ft surface. Resurfacing costs $10,800 to $12,960 plus crack repair.

What is the cheapest way to get a tennis court?

If you already have a sound concrete pad, surfacing and lines alone run $10,800 to $12,960. If you only need lines on an existing surface, the flat fee is $1,500.

Why is the price a range and not one number?

Site access, grading, and local concrete pricing move the final figure. Builders quote the low end for clean, flat, accessible sites and up to 20 percent more for difficult ones.

What does ASBA spec mean?

ASBA is the American Sports Builders Association. An ASBA-spec pad is a thicker, reinforced slab built to tighter tolerances. It costs about 24 percent more than a basic sub-base pad and lasts longer where the ground moves.
