Trevor May are tennis court contractors with experience dating back to the early days of modern tennis court construction.
Tennis is unique in that it can be played on a wide range of different tennis court playing surfaces, each constructed with slightly different playing characteristics affecting ball bounce, the surface speed, foot grip and comfort. We offer the following surfaces:
- Ace® tennis courts built using porous macadam, usually with a colour sprayed finish - more
- EDEL Elite® tennis courts installed using artificial grass (a range to suit your needs) - more
- Play-Rite® tennis courts constucted from sports carpet - Quickcourt or Claytex for tennis - more
- Proflex® impervious acrylic tennis courts - more
- Poraflex® porous range of cushioned or un-cushioned tennis court surfaces - more
- Advantage Redcourt®- a synthetic clay tennis court - more
Court dimensions for a single court
Tennis courts are constructed to the following dimensions:
Full size: 36.57 x 18.28m, Minimum LTA club size tennis court: 34.75 x 17.07m Domestic tennis court: 33.53 x 16.48m
The tennis court must be built in a single plane with a maximum fall of 1 :100 (1 :120 preferred)
On sloping sites, additional space will be needed around the tennis court, or retaining structures. It is good practice to maintain a flat margin outside the court enclosure fence, ideally slightly lower than the playing surface, to aid drainage and provide a zone that can be treated periodically with weed killer to prevent weed encroachment onto or under the tennis court.
