How Long Does it Take to Build a Backyard Home Court?

Ask any coach, athlete, or sports expert, and they’d agree: home court advantage is one of the most significant and desirable advantages in any sport. So, what if you could have home court advantage every time you play? By adding a backyard court to your residence, you can have just that! 

But how long does it take to build a backyard home court? Thanks to our experienced crew and superior materials at Orange County Pools and Spas, it might be faster than you think! In total, building your backyard home court can take as little as seven to fourteen days.

Keep in mind, since no two courts are identical, the time it takes to build your backyard court can vary. Here’s everything you need to know about the process of building a home court in your backyard.

Customization of Your Home Court

When you build a backyard court with Orange County Pools and Spas, you will get a one-of-a-kind, fully unique court to fit your needs and desires. While the choices you pick can cause the build time to vary some, our team still works to install your home court as quickly as possible so the fun can begin.

You want your court customizations to fit your primary sports use, your budget, and personal preferences. For starters, you need to choose the size of your court. Home courts can range in size from a 30′ x 30’ multisport area, all the way up to a 60’ x 120’ full-sized tennis court. We can install half-court, full-court, or modified courts for pickleball, basketball, tennis, inline hockey, and more.

You also need to choose tile colors, line colors, nets and goals installation, optional lights installation, landscaping, and more. If these decisions feel overwhelming, don’t worry! Our design team will walk you through each of them to help you make the best choices.

The Building Process

Once you decide to install a home court, we will first assess your property to help determine the best location, size recommendations, and any possible limitations. After you make your design choices, installation can begin.

First, we prepare the area and lay down a blacktop base over the court area to create a solid-level surface. Next, we systematically install the Mateflex® Sports Tiles, trim the edges, and paint the lines. The final step is to install hoops, fences, lights, and landscaping, as you desire.
