North State Resurfacing offers Novaplay® Pickleball surfacing designed exclusively for the sport of pickleball, ensuring the quality of the playing surface.
About Novaplay® Pickleball Court Surface
With up to four players on an area, at 1/3 the size of a standard tennis court, pickleball courts are exposed to far greater wear and tear than a typical tennis system. The Novaplay® system provides Pickleball facility owners a surface material that looks and plays like a premium tennis system while providing greater durability and wear resistance.
Novaplay® is ITF classified category 3 for tournament play and is available in 12 standard colors. Novaplay’s unique blend of acrylic with factory-added non-angular texture provides a low abrasive surface with up to 200% abrasion resistance of a standard tennis surface. Novaplay® is also recognized as an official court surface by relevant authorities, enhancing its credibility and court performance.
Official Pickleball Court Dimensions
According to the USA Pickleball Association (USAPA), the official dimensions of a pickleball court are 20 feet wide by 44 feet long, similar to the dimensions of tennis courts. Similar to a tennis court, the court is divided equally into left and right service areas, with the addition of a seven-foot-deep, non-volley zone close to the net. The height of the net should be 34 inches in the middle.
Pickleball Court Installation Preparation
Before you get started on pickleball court installation and repair, you need to be sure you prepare properly.
Determine If You Have Enough Space For a Pickleball Court
Before diving into the construction of your pickleball court, it’s crucial to ensure you have adequate space. A regulation-sized pickleball court requires a minimum area of 30 feet wide by 60 feet long. The specific court dimensions are 20 feet wide by 44 feet long for the playing area, with additional space around the court essential for player movement and safety.
Start by measuring your available space and consider factors like location, accessibility, and surrounding features. If you’re uncertain about the space requirements, consulting with a professional contractor who specializes in pickleball court construction can provide valuable insights and help you make informed decisions.
Designing Your Pickleball Court
Designing your pickleball court involves several key considerations to ensure a top-notch playing experience. First, planning the court layout is crucial for optimal play, including the precise placement of nets, lines, and other features. Select a playing surface material that offers excellent traction and durability, such as asphalt or concrete. Think about incorporating amenities like lighting for evening play, seating for spectators, and storage for equipment.
A well-thought-out design not only enhances the playing experience but can also increase the overall value of your property.
Pickleball Court Construction and Installation
Preparing the Site
The construction process begins with site preparation, which includes clearing the area, leveling the ground, selecting the right surface material, and installing a proper drainage system.
Lay Surface Material
This is followed by laying the chosen surface material and applying multiple layers of acrylic coatings for added protection and traction.
When it comes to constructing a pickleball court, the surface material is a critical factor that can significantly impact the playing experience. Popular choices for pickleball courts include asphalt and concrete, both known for their excellent traction and durability. Asphalt provides a smooth, consistent surface that is ideal for outdoor play, while concrete offers long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. Cushioned pickleball court surfaces are great for those prioritizing shock absorption.
Finishing Touches
The final step involves painting the court lines and installing the net system. No matter what surface material you choose, North State Resurfacing is experienced in Pickleball line painting and dimensions. The quality of line painting and coated systems is significantly influenced by the pickleball court surface, which is crucial for ensuring durability and performance. On multi-use courts, we may also combine Pickleball lines with other sports. Additionally, we can convert an existing tennis court into permanent Pickleball courts. Proper court maintenance after construction is essential to preserve the quality and longevity of the court.
Hiring a professional contractor ensures that each step is executed with precision, resulting in a high-quality court that meets official standards.
We also offer options for court customization with logo painting or the color combination of your choice.
Building a Pickleball Court vs. Converting a Tennis Court
When it comes to constructing a pickleball court, you have two primary options: building a new court from scratch or converting an existing tennis court. Building a new pickleball court allows you to customize every aspect to meet your specific needs and preferences.
However, converting tennis courts can be a more cost-effective solution, especially if the existing court is in good condition. This option involves resurfacing and repainting the court to meet pickleball specifications. One key consideration is the court dimensions, as a pickleball court is smaller and has a different layout compared to a tennis court.
Regardless of the path you choose, hiring a professional contractor who specializes in pickleball court construction ensures a high-quality, durable playing surface that meets official standards.

Resurfacing and Recoating
A worn or faded court surface can affect gameplay. Our resurfacing services include cleaning, patching, and applying new layers of acrylic coatings to enhance durability and court performance.
Line Repainting
Faded or damaged lines can make it difficult to play accurately. Proper court maintenance is essential to keep lines clear and visible. We offer precision line repainting to ensure clear and visible boundaries for optimal play.
