Tennis Court Resurfacing Questions

An on-site base-condition assessment determines this. Surface cracks and acrylic delamination are resurfacing candidates. If the sub-base has shifted or drainage slope is lost across the slab, a rebuild conversation is needed. The written report after the assessment will state which applies to your court.

Most resurfacing jobs run three to five days on site, but cure intervals between acrylic coat layers add time. Coastal sites near the ocean may need extended cure windows. The written estimate will include a day-by-day schedule specific to your site conditions.

Resurfacing an existing slab typically does not require a building permit in San Diego, because no new structure is being added. However, if drainage modifications or sub-base work are included, a permit may apply. The assessment confirms this.

Standard acrylic systems come in a range of court colours, most commonly green or blue playing surfaces with contrasting surrounds. The number of colour coat layers and the specific product are listed in the written estimate so you know exactly what is being applied.

Minor drainage slope issues can sometimes be addressed during resurfacing by adjusting the levelling layer before coating. Significant slope loss across the full slab usually requires sub-base correction first. The base-condition assessment will identify which situation applies and the estimate will reflect it.
