Tennis Court Construction Blog

Archive for May, 2010

I am building our village concrete tennis court. Just want to know the standards measurements.

The court is
78 feet (23.77 meters)long
and its width is 27 feet (8.23 meters)-FOR SINGLES MATCHES
or 36 feet (10.97) meters- FOR DOUBLES MATCHES

The net is
3 feet 6 inches (1.07 meters high)

The posts are
3 feet (914 milimeters)

Nothing too big, just three courts (a few feet apart) and a surrounding fence? This is hard court, not clay.

it takes about 20,000 to build one court give or take the color like the us open aqua marine or the regular so i would say about 60,000 for the courts and extra for the fence and the labor maybe…. that’s a hard question though but i think i got the sum about right

It doesnt have to be more then one tenis court just 1 court and it would be nice if u can tell me the mantainance cost too that would be nice. Please and thank you !!

Cost approx. $30-35,000 dollars.

And maintenance? Washing it…brushing leaves off the court….like ..$5?

A new tennis court can cost anywhere from $25,000 to $80,000, or more. Several variables will effect the cost of the court including the amount of site work, choice of court surface, fencing quantity, lighting, windscreens, etc. Prices also vary by geography.

around 20 – 25 k

If you dont want any places to sit or anything fancy. Just paint the lines in and set up a net. You can play on grass, concrete, almost anything, as long as its relitivly flat. get some chalk or some paint and do the meauring. You could have your own court anywhere (as long as you have a net).

I’ve heard something like $20,000 but that’s just a ball park. Obviously it will depend on where you are having it built.

or

Clay or Asphalt will be the price factor as asphalt will be the cheaper of the hard surface.

MUCH of it you can do yourself, up to the hot asphalt. Don’t use cold pack as it will not last as long.

Pricing can be hard to pinpoint because it depends on how much excavation you need.

Call around for pricing and don’t necessarily go for the lowest, but for the best level of service.

Hello. I would like to build a tennis court for my family but are unsure of the dimensions. Are they the same as in wimbeldon or smaller? Does anyone know the exact mesurments (including running space)? Thank you for your help.
Ye standard doesnt fit I only have 95 feet length

Tennis court dimensions are pretty much standard. It would depend on the overall space you have whether it would fit or not.

More exact and a better detail.

95 should be plenty big enough. My buddy in London has a backyard court with around 90 feet of length. The court playing surface is standard (21 + 18) but the running room is reduced (from 21 to 6) His fence is on his side of the property line in by 6" so it limits it more. Makes it tough to play high bounces with a loopy stroke but you sure learn how to hit on the rise. You have 47′6" per side so 21+18+8.5 should be fine. Next question is surface.

Want 2 build 1 just wonder what sort of price i looking at.
MAny thanks

Depends what country you’re in.
What surface you want.

A tournament surface would be alot of money, probably 10,000 or more.
A good quality tennis centre surface would probably be over 4,000 but that seems affordable.
A park like court could be relatively cheaper, but you’re best off with getting a good quality court, or maybe even a professional type surface?
