Tennis Court Maker

Please note, this is a very basic site just showing various pictures, probably too many. Any pictures of private Tennis Courts have been taken with the clients permission.
I have always worked on the principal that private clients will always remain private therefore references are not normally offered for private courts, and then only as a last resort.
The quality of materials and my experience have always been enough.
All photographs are of my own work !!        Higher resolution pictures available if required, happy scrolling.

Sales talk

I don't like the idea of sales talk but you can rest assured I am fully experienced and qualified in all aspects of Tennis Court construction. Any inspection (cameras welcomed) and your enquiries at any stage of the process are warmly welcomed. All insurance obligations and guarantees are comparative to the industry standard. Intended to be light hearted but facully correct, I am well known in this area for always promoting any advancement in Tennis Court construction. I was the first to colour coat and line a tennis court in one day (back in the late 70's) to offer as standard factory powder-coated iron work (also still galvanised), first to provide 125pen macadam as standard, to purchase and master a dual grade Rugby DG400 laser, just about the best in the industry. This equipment is extremly good for rapid and accurate level assessment. To design and build a remote and laser controlled mechanical slow screed system, this machine incorporates motors manufactured by the same company that made the drive units for the Mars lunar rover, ok if you want a "tenniscourtonmars" , to offer, if previously arranged, stone level equal to that of SAPCA's finished tarmac level. I am mechanically experienced for plant servicing and maintenance and keep a vast range of  spares in stock to help keep the fleet running.  No one in this region has colour sprayed or installed Synthetic grass for as long as myself. Apart from some initial excavations, at no time is any part of the process contracted out.

Laser controlled screed machine

Make no mistake about this was probably the worlds first Laser Controlled Screed Machine for small areas of this type of work. Developed by myself, including the building of its electronic control circuitry. I am still willing challenge anyone to beat this for ease of use and accuracy. +/- 2mm possible on 20mm chippings. And this is over the total length of a tennis court not just the normal 3 metre straight edge.
