Already have a court? We repair and resurface too.
Cracks, low spots, peeling color, faded lines, posts and fencing — most courts in the Wilmington area are fixed, not rebuilt. We tell you which on site.
Pickleball Court Construction
Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America, and demand for dedicated courts is surging across Wilmington, NC. We build single courts, dual courts, and full multi-court complexes for HOAs, parks departments, and private properties.
Every pickleball court we build uses the SportMaster acrylic coating system, which resists fading in the North Carolina sun and provides consistent ball bounce and player traction. Courts are built to official USA Pickleball dimensions with proper clearance zones.
- Official 20' x 44' court dimensions with clearance zones
- SportMaster acrylic coating system
- Custom color combinations from the SportMaster palette
- Net post systems and fencing options
- Tennis-to-pickleball conversions (up to 4 courts per tennis court)
- LED lighting packages for evening play
Tennis Court Construction & Resurfacing
Tennis courts require precise dimensions, consistent surface texture, and coatings that can handle years of Wilmington heat and humidity. We build new courts and resurface existing ones using the full SportMaster system.
Our tennis court resurfacing process strips deteriorated coatings, repairs cracks and low spots, and applies fresh SportMaster acrylic in your chosen color combination. The result is a surface that plays consistently, with the next recoat scheduled by condition rather than a fixed calendar.
- New construction and full resurfacing services
- Standard 78' x 36' dimensions with proper run-off zones
- SportMaster ProCushion system for reduced joint impact
- Crack repair and base leveling before resurfacing
- Dual-sport line striping (tennis + pickleball overlay)
- Windscreen and fencing packages
Basketball Court Construction
We build full-size and half-court basketball courts for commercial properties, municipal parks, HOA amenity centers, and private residences. Our basketball court for the city featured in MrBeast's Beast Games demonstrated our ability to handle high-profile, tight-deadline projects.
SportMaster acrylic coatings provide the consistent surface grip basketball demands while standing up to heavy foot traffic and North Carolina weather. The SkateMaster system option delivers a harder, more durable surface ideal for multi-use recreational courts.
- Full-court (94' x 50') and half-court configurations
- SportMaster or SkateMaster coating systems
- Custom colors, logos, and game line markings
- Hoop and backboard systems (wall-mount and in-ground)
- Multi-sport line overlays (basketball + pickleball)
- Featured project: Beast Games basketball court construction
Five Steps to a Finished Court
Every court follows the same proven process. No shortcuts, no surprises, and a written scope you can hold us to.
Consultation & Site Evaluation
We visit your site, evaluate grading, drainage, and sun exposure, then recommend the best court configuration for your space.
Custom Court Design
We create a detailed layout with dimensions, color selections from SportMaster, and line striping plans for your review and approval.
Base Construction
We prepare the sub-base with proper grading, then pour or repair the concrete or asphalt foundation to sport court specifications.

We apply the full acrylic system: filler coats, color coats, and finish coats. Your chosen colors transform the surface into a professional court.

Precision game lines, net and post installation, and a thorough quality walkthrough before handoff. Your court is game-ready.
SportMaster Acrylic Systems: Built for the Long Game
SportMaster is a 100% acrylic sport surface system from SealMaster, formulated to resist UV fading and hold color and texture in coastal conditions when installed to specification.
We install SportMaster systems to the manufacturer's specification. How long any court coating performs depends on use, sun exposure, drainage, base condition, and maintenance, which is why we give you a maintenance-planning estimate rather than a lifespan promise. That estimate is separate from the written workmanship warranty in your proposal.

Sport Court Maintenance
Regular maintenance is the biggest factor in how long a coating performs before it needs a recoat. We offer ongoing maintenance services to keep your court performing and looking its best.
Cleaning & Wash
Professional pressure washing removes dirt, algae, and organic buildup that can affect surface grip and appearance. We recommend cleaning 1-2 times per year for Wilmington courts exposed to coastal humidity.
1-2x / yearCrack Repair
Coastal temperature changes can cause minor cracks over time. We monitor and repair cracks before they spread, using acrylic fillers that integrate with the existing SportMaster system seamlessly.
As neededResurfacing & Recoating
When the existing coating reaches end-of-life, we strip, repair, and apply a fresh SportMaster system. Timing depends on the court's condition, use, and exposure.

Sport Court FAQ
How long does a SportMaster court surface last?
Coating life varies with use, UV exposure, drainage, base condition, and maintenance, so we do not quote a fixed lifespan. Your proposal includes a maintenance-planning estimate for recoating; that estimate is separate from the written workmanship warranty stated in the proposal.
What is the cost of building a pickleball court in Wilmington, NC?
It depends on size, site preparation, base type, fencing, lighting, and the coating system selected. Request a written proposal and we will price your court from a site visit or your plans.
Can you convert a tennis court into pickleball courts?
Yes. A standard tennis court can be converted into up to four pickleball courts. We handle the full conversion including new line striping, net post installation, and optional resurfacing with SportMaster coatings.
What is the sport court construction process?
Our process follows five steps: site evaluation and design consultation, base preparation and grading, concrete or asphalt installation, SportMaster acrylic coating application in your chosen colors, and final line striping with quality inspection.
Do you build courts for HOAs and commercial properties?
Commercial and municipal projects are our primary focus. We work with HOAs, property management companies, municipalities, parks departments, and general contractors across the Wilmington, NC area. We handle permitting, design, and full construction.
What maintenance does a sport court need?
Regular maintenance includes pressure washing 1-2 times per year, crack monitoring and repair, and periodic recoating on a schedule set by the court's condition and use. We offer maintenance packages to keep your court performing at its best and extend its full lifespan.
How long does it take to build a sport court?
A typical sport court project takes 2-4 weeks from ground preparation to final striping, depending on size, weather conditions, and base requirements. We provide a detailed timeline during your consultation.
