A regulation grade pickleball court is more than a flat slab, it’s an engineered surface that controls bounce, drainage, and longevity. Concrete Charleston builds courts that play like the pros’ and last for decades in Lowcountry weather.
Whether you’re adding a single court to a backyard or a multi court complex to a community amenity, our team handles the entire process from grading to net post installation.
Why Choose a Concrete Pickleball Court?
Asphalt courts crack and soften in Charleston’s heat. Concrete stays true year after year, requires far less resurfacing, and gives you a uniform bounce across the entire playing surface.
Engineered for Play
Court dimensions follow USAPA standards: 20′ x 44′ playing area with a recommended 30′ x 60′ total footprint to give players safe out of bounds room. We pour at the proper thickness with reinforcement for long term integrity.
Built to Drain
Charleston rain is heavy and frequent. We slope every court 1″ per 10′ from center to edge so water sheets off and the surface dries fast, no puddles, no rain outs.
4 Inch Reinforced Concrete Slabs
Minimum 4 inch thick concrete slabs with steel rebar reinforcement grid for maximum structural integrity and crack resistance. Our slabs are engineered to handle years of intense play without settling or surface degradation.
Laser Leveled Grading
Precision laser leveling technology ensures perfectly flat playing surfaces with exact 1% slope for optimal drainage. No dead spots, no puddles—just consistent, tournament quality play across the entire court.
Regulation Dimensions
Official USA Pickleball regulation court dimensions: 44′ × 20′ playing area with proper out of bounds zones. We ensure accurate measurements and professional line striping that meets competitive play standards.
Premium Acrylic Surfacing
Choice of industry leading acrylic coating systems including SportMaster and Nova Sports. These professional grade surfaces provide superior ball response, consistent speed, and vibrant color that lasts for years.
High PSI Concrete Mix
4,000+ PSI concrete mix designed for sport court applications. Enhanced with air entrainment for freeze thaw resistance and proper water cement ratios for maximum durability in coastal conditions.
Multi Layer Coating System
Professional 5 to 7 layer application process including primer, resurfacer, texture coats, and finish coats. This system ensures optimal ball bounce, player traction, and long term surface performance.
Our Pickleball Court Construction Process
Site Survey & Layout
We assess your space, sun orientation (ideal courts run north–south), drainage patterns, and any setbacks. You’ll get a layout plan before we ever break ground.
Excavation & Base Preparation
A compacted aggregate base is the foundation of a crack free court. We don’t cut corners on sub base prep, it’s where most failed courts go wrong.
Pour, Finish & Cure
We pour, screed, and broom finish the slab, then allow proper cure time before any coating is applied.
Surface Coating & Striping
An acrylic court coating gives you the right ball response and a long lasting color. We stripe to regulation and install net posts and nets.
