Court Maintenance

Fast-Dry Court Maintenance

Maintain your court to keep it playable. Choose from weekly or bi-monthly service (bi-monthly does not guarantee against weeds). We encourage service more than once a week and are easily accommodated upon request.

Maintenance visits include rolling the court, applying fast-dry material, and calcium chloride as needed. We also sweep ant court and lines.

Adjust your sprinkler times throughout the season as the weather varies. Proper watering is key to a great-playing court. Please feel free to call us for suggestions, however, you should contact your irrigation professionals for adjustments.

We recommend that all our customers know where the manual switch is. Ten or fifteen minutes of watering may be all you need if your court is a little dry. You can always add water but you can't take it away.

• Make sure that your sprinklers are operating properly.
• Sweep the court before and after you play.
• Keep all overhanging branches and growth away from the court.
• Ants are a huge problem on the East End. Your best bet is to call an exterminator.
• An additional service will not help this problem. Vibrations from the roller will disturb the ants, causing them to come to the surface and create more holes.

If your court isn't closed, it can't be opened the following year. Close your court as soon as you’re done playing for the season. Make sure your lines and nails are removed and take down your net. If not done in the fall, it will need to be done in the spring before your court can be opened. Contact us to schedule your court closing, as it won’t be done automatically.

A tennis court can be soft if it is too wet or too dry. A wet court will be dark in color and spongy, and wet to the touch. A dry court will be light gray in color, sandy, and powdery. Do not play on your court is so soft that you are leaving divots.
