Why Us

Engineered design packages and compacted base layers prevent cracks and standing water

Courts built on poorly prepared sites develop cracks, puddling, and unstable surfaces within months. Proper site preparation addresses drainage, elevation, and base compaction before construction starts.

Common Challenges

  • Cracks and settling within the first year

    Inadequate base compaction and poor grading let the court shift and crack under freeze-thaw cycles

  • Standing water after every storm

    Missing drainage channels and improper slope leave puddles that damage the surface and limit play

  • Unstable edges and uneven surfaces

    Skipped site clearing and grading leave soft spots and dips that affect ball bounce and safety

How We Help

  • 4,000 PSI compacted aggregate base

    Compacted base layers with proper drainage channels prevent settling and cracks under freeze-thaw cycles

  • Engineered grading plans for slopes

    CAD drawings and grading specifications address sloped residential lots and drainage-sensitive grading common in Loudoun County

  • Proper elevation control and drainage

    Drainage channels and controlled slope keep the court dry after seasonal storm runoff and heavy rain

  • Base preparation for all surface types

    Compacted aggregate base supports acrylic, post-tension concrete, and modular tile surfaces without future repairs

FAQ

Common Questions About Court Design & Site Preparation

Courts built on poorly prepared sites develop cracks, puddling, and unstable surfaces within months. Inadequate base compaction lets the court shift under freeze-thaw cycles. Missing drainage channels leave standing water that damages the surface. Soft spots and uneven grading affect ball bounce and safety. Repairs cost 30-50% more than proper preparation upfront.
Poor drainage causes standing water that damages the court surface and limits play. Water infiltration weakens the base and leads to cracks and settling. Freeze-thaw cycles worsen damage in Northern Virginia. Courts with drainage problems need expensive repairs or full rebuilds within 3-5 years. Proper drainage channels and grading prevent these issues.
Engineered design packages are recommended for sloped lots, poor drainage, or previous earthwork failures. They include CAD drawings, grading plans, and base specifications that address site-specific challenges. HOA and school projects require professional design documents for approval. Backyard courts on flat, well-drained sites may only need conceptual design and planning.
Conceptual design determines court placement, orientation, and size relative to property lines and existing features. It includes layout options for single or multi-sport courts, sun orientation for playability, and preliminary grading and drainage recommendations. The design helps you visualize the court and make informed decisions before committing to construction.
Base depth depends on soil conditions and surface type. Most courts need 4-6 inches of compacted aggregate base over properly graded subgrade. Sloped sites or poor drainage may require deeper base layers or additional drainage channels. Engineered design packages specify exact base depth and compaction requirements for your site.
Yes. A properly compacted aggregate base supports acrylic, post-tension concrete, and modular tile surfaces used for tennis, pickleball, and basketball. Base preparation focuses on drainage, elevation control, and compaction — not surface type. The surface is installed after base preparation is complete.
