Tennis Court Contractors
Tennis court surfacing, installation and maintenance specialists covering City of Edinburgh.
About this business
Tennis Court Contractors describe themselves as professionals in tennis court surfaces and installation, with the experience and know-how to deliver the structure a facility needs. They state that they can help at every stage of a project, from designing and maintaining to funding, and that they work with large tennis clubs, schools and private garden facilities.
The company lists the surfaces it supplies: macadam surfacing installed as a tarmac open textured surface with acrylic paint, polymeric surfacing with two coats of coloured polyurethane paint, sand dressed or sand filled synthetic surfaces meeting LTA, ITF and SAPCA playing characteristics, artificial clay courts with the same playing characteristics as natural clay, and artificial grass flooring. Their stated installation sequence is to dig up the existing surface, lay the base, install the tarmac, apply the binder, paint the surface in the chosen colours with a non-slip paint and then apply line markings.
On maintenance, they state that courts need ongoing cleaning, pressure washing, moss and algae treatment and re-colouring of the non-slip paint to keep playing characteristics and player safety, and that courts must meet a TRRL 55 slip resistance throughout their lifespan. They also say they can assist with grant applications for new sports facilities and can adjust designs and specifications to suit the funds available, naming schools, colleges, universities, sports clubs and leisure centres as eligible organisations.
