10 points for the best answer! Would like to see some pictures of them

Uh well tennis courts usually cost inbetween 30-40k. The color of the tennis court will cost little money, it is just regular concrete paint.

I cant think of any colored tennis courts because they are probably distracting but the AO is kind of bright blue..

And "10 points for best answer" isnt really that great of an incentive, I just answer questions to help others

also how much space is needed and where do find some good quality net, bench and scoreboard? thank you!

Measure the area needed for the court and level it and form it up yourself. It’s not that hard. Concrete is cheap! Have the truck come out and fill your form and pay a little extra for them to "finish" the concrete. If you want to pay $15K for a concrete court like someone above said, call ME. I’ll fly out there, form it up, pay for the concrete and finishers, fly home and still make 10K in profit.

Roughly speaking.

And how much would maintainence be, assuming I’d be willing to do the mowing/gardening myself?

You will need to make sure it is graded properly and will need special grass and mowing equipment (like golf greens). Should also be fenced. I would guess $10,000 min..

I am thinking about it and I was just wondering if anyone has one and how much it cost.

The basic asphalt court starts at about $40,000 to $45,000, with the average price probably in the mid $50s to low $60s. Check out this link for more info -> http://www.concretenetwork.com/tennis-court/cost.html Hope it helps

Hi boo, my answer to this question or a similar one yesterday was over $100,000. Anthony C. I believe answered over $200,000 based on first hand knowledge.
Let me see if I can link you to it and see what the final outcome was.

Just a thought, but if you’re single and would like to play on Anthony’s court just email him. I hear he is temporarily available and open to meeting cute girls. Just a thought. He is going to be the next Andy Roddick you know. only better.

Ours was just under $30,000, but our ground didn’t need too much leveling out, so that saved a lot of money.

I am just curious
umm..excuse me..i wanted to know for when i got older…if you didn’t know the answer you should not have attempted to answer it…and my daddy passed…just because you can’t afford doesn’t mean everyone can’t…thank you!!!

I would say the bigger question is how much you have to pay to get the land to build the tennis court.

But as someone mentioned before it is around that 20000 to 30000 range unless your doing it yourself then you might be able to save a lot more.

In addition, if you live a area like CA or New York its pretty much impossible to build something like that in your backyard. Hopefully you live in a place where land is cheap and abundant.

Basic surface, fence surrounding it… Fairfield county connecticut

Twenty years ago in the Boston MA area, I thoroughly checked into pricing for an asphalt tennis court, without a fence, installed by a professional tennis court construction company. At that time, the price was $40K USD.

Allowing for inflation, the price for the court alone should be roughly $80K. Adding another $20K for the fence gives you $100K total.

How much money do you think I would have to spend on this cable?

if it’s just the cable broken go to hardware store and purchase one to replace it.

Yes loads of lost balls as well,,
