Why ASTM Standards Matter

Two ASTM standards drive court longevity and play quality in Georgia's climate:

Pickleball Court FAQ

How much does a pickleball court cost in Georgia?

Residential single court (20'x44' playing surface, 30'x60' total area with run-off): $22,000-$38,000 turn-key. Includes base prep, sport-face turf, line striping, net post sleeves, and net system. Concrete-base courts run higher; turf-on-aggregate is most popular. HOA and multi-court installs have volume pricing — call for quotes above 2 courts.

What size is a regulation pickleball court?

Playing surface: 20 feet wide by 44 feet long, with the net 36 inches at posts and 34 inches at center. We recommend a total footprint of 30'x60' minimum to accommodate run-off and player safety. Tournament builds use 34'x64'.

Turf or concrete — which is better for pickleball?

Both work; they play differently. Sport-turf with infill: lower joint impact, quieter, drainage-friendly, better for residential and HOA noise compliance, ball bounces slightly slower. Acrylic-coated concrete: classic pickleball feel, faster ball, hotter surface in summer, louder. We install both — 70% of our Georgia residential courts are sport-turf because of joint comfort and the ability to use the surface for other sports.

How long does installation take?

Standard turf court on prepared base: 4-6 days. Adding lighting, fencing, or windscreens: +2-4 days. Concrete pad pour for traditional acrylic courts requires a 28-day cure before line painting. Most homeowners go from quote to first game within 3-4 weeks.

What about HOA approval for a backyard pickleball court?

Same process as our HOA artificial turf approval — we provide a spec sheet, dimensions, drainage plan, and noise mitigation plan (sport-turf reduces ball-pop noise about 40% vs concrete). Cobb HOAs generally approve when noise and aesthetic standards are met. See our HOA Turf Approval Guide for the full process.

Can I use the court for tennis or basketball too?

Pickleball + multi-sport conversion is one of our most-requested setups. With a slightly larger surface (24'x52') and dual line striping, you can play pickleball, mini-tennis, and shoot hoops. Standard sport-face yarn handles all three; we add white pickleball lines and yellow tennis lines so they're visually distinct.

What turf grade do you use for pickleball?

Sport-face nylon or polyethylene blend, 38-46 oz/sq yd face weight, 1.0"-1.25" pile height, with infill engineered for ball-bounce consistency (typically silica or coated acrylic infill). All courts use ASTM F2898-tested fiber for UV durability and ASTM F1551-aligned base spec.

Do you install lighting and fencing too?

Yes. LED court lighting (200-400 lux for evening play), 10' chain-link or vinyl-coated fencing, windscreens, and ball-collection systems. Most homeowners add lighting; HOA and commercial almost always include fencing.
