Backyard Courts
One surface for basketball, pickleball, and more, built to hold up under Arizona sun and monsoon season.
What Goes Wrong
A base graded without a drainage slope traps monsoon runoff, which pools under the surface and accelerates coating failure.
Drainage slope is designed into the base before the slab is poured, not patched in after the surface shows pooling.
Skipping sub-base compaction or choosing the wrong base material for the soil leads to slab cracking and an uneven playing surface.
The builder assesses soil condition and site access first, then specifies concrete or asphalt with proper sub-base compaction.
Lower-grade acrylic coatings fade and chalk within a season under Phoenix UV, leaving lines unreadable and the surface slippery.
UV-stable acrylic coating is specified for Phoenix conditions, maintaining color and grip through repeated high-heat seasons.
Adding line striping as an afterthought often means overlapping or misaligned markings that make multi-sport play confusing.
Court markings for each sport are laid out in the design phase so color-coded lines are striped cleanly into the finished surface.
Scope of Work
From the first grade check to the final line stripe, here is the full scope of the installation.
Slope and soil are assessed before any base work begins, with drainage designed to carry monsoon runoff clear of the surface.
Sub-base is compacted and the slab is poured to a stable, level finish, the foundation that determines long-term surface performance.
UV-stable acrylic is applied after the base reaches full cure, giving a consistent playing surface that resists fading and wear.
Color-coded court markings for basketball, pickleball, and other sports are striped into the finished surface in a single pass.
In-ground hoop installation is coordinated with the base pour so the anchor sleeve is set before the slab cures.
The builder sizes the court to the available footprint, half-court layouts suit most Phoenix backyards without major grading.
Modular tile surface over an existing stable base.
New acrylic coating over a sound existing slab.
Multi-court layouts for shared community facilities.
Why Choose Us
Every job is scoped on-site, estimated in writing, and signed off with a walkthrough, no guesswork at any stage.
A local court builder assesses the ground and Arizona sun exposure before a single figure is written down.
Base prep, surfacing, drainage, and line marking appear as separate line items so the scope is clear from the start.
UV exposure and monsoon drainage are factored into the surface spec and base design, not treated as afterthoughts.
Work covers new backyard courts, HOA and school facilities, and resurfacing for worn courts across the Phoenix metro area.
Line accuracy and surface level are checked and confirmed before the job is signed off and the site is handed back.
