Surface System
Acrytech Acrylic with Full Surface Mesh
Project Summary
This project resurfaced an existing residential pickleball court in Tampa, Florida, that had developed heavy surface cracking. A full surface mesh system was installed beneath the new acrylic to carry the court past the cracking rather than cover it. The temporary net was replaced with an in-ground system set on footers poured by our crew.
Scope & Execution
The existing court was already striped for pickleball and had reached the point where the surface was cracking across the playing area. Rather than coat over the cracking, a full surface mesh system was installed across the court to bridge the movement underneath, then finished with an Acrytech acrylic system. The temporary mobile net the owner had been using was removed and replaced with a semi-permanent in-ground Dominator aluminum net system, with the footers set by our own crew rather than subbed out. Four days on site start to finish.
Construction Considerations
Full surface mesh installed to carry the court past existing cracking
Acrytech acrylic system selected for durability and consistent ball response
In-ground net system replacing a temporary mobile setup
Net footers poured and set by our own crew
Unique Challenges
Heavy surface cracking across the existing playing area
Deciding between a surface repair and a mesh system before any coating went down
Setting permanent footers into a court that was already finished and in use
Project Context
A Cracking Court Carried, Not Covered
This court was resurfaced over a mesh system so the cracking underneath would not come back through, and finished with a permanent net in place of a temporary one.
