Hard Court Cleaning
Hard Courts Need Maintenance!
Let's face it: exterior courts are left out in some pretty bad weather! Rain, humidity, "pollen season," and wear and tear all take their toll. When it's time for that maintenance cleaning to get the court in top shape again, we have the tools and experience to get the dirty job done.
We offer both routine maintenance cleaning and surface preparation services for asphalt- or concreted-based
Hard Courts.
"How do I know what kind of court of have?"
There are four main types of surface for tennis courts:
- Real grass courts (like at Wimbledon)
- Artificial grass courts (think "mini golf")
- Clay courts (made of crushed shale, stone or brick)
- ...and Hard Courts.
Pickleball courts are hard courts. In our experience, if you don't know what kind of tennis court you have, it's most likely a HardCourt. The others are specialty courts which require significant extra maintenance and care.
"How do you clean a hardcourt?"
It depends upon how dirty it is, and what the intent is. A court with mild algae stains requires a lighter cleaning than a court being prepped for re-painting or re-surfacing. But either process will rely upon chemicals to loosen the contaminants, and high-volume water to rinse it away.
"How long will it take to clean my standard tennis court?"
Less than a day. It'll be all wet with water when I'm done, and how long it takes to dry will just depend upon the weather.
"Do you need a water source?"
Yes. Cleaning a tennis court requires more water than our truck can carry, and so we need a spigot to connect to.
"Can't I just hire a handyman to powerwash my court?"
Well... you CAN, but as I illustrate in this video, there are some reasons why power washing a hardcourt isn't advisable:
"Will you wash just a couple dirty PARTS of my tennis court?"
No thank you. For results we want our name on, it's all or nothing.
"The big tennis court company quoted me a HUGE price..."
I know. For apples-to-apples cleaning jobs, we usually compare very favorably to those big regional tennis court maintenance companies.
