Hard Surface Tennis Courts Maintenance
The different surfacing types for outdoor tennis courts each have their own characteristics and affect the way that the game is played.
How to clean a tennis court surface
Hard courts are usually made from a hard material such as asphalt or concrete, and this is sometimes covered with a painted acrylic layer. These courts are generally faster than clay courts, but slower than grass. Hard courts have been used for the US Open since 1978 and tend to equalise the court in terms of athletic ability. They can be found all over the world.
Hard surface tennis courts can be installed both indoors and outdoors, and are often cheaper to install and maintain than the other options such as grass and clay. The addition of an acrylic layer will provide better cushioning. These types of tennis courts are suited to all-year play and provide a truly uniform playing surface.
What different maintenance services do Astro Care offer for hard surface tennis courts?
If your hard surface tennis court has sustained damage or is not looking at its best, there are specialist repair and maintenance services that can help. Hard-surface tennis courts can be sprayed to kill off any moss and algae. For more serious infestations, high-pressure water and motorised brushes can be used to clean the courts.
AstroCare also specialises in the re-spraying of all hard courts with high quality, water-based acrylic paints and comes in a variety of colours including spring green, forest green, light holly, summer red, terracotta and black. Depending on the condition of the court, a binder coat may need to be applied first but this will be discussed first.
We are also experts in hard-surface tennis installation, and the installation and maintenance of multi-use games areas and artificial grass pitches.
