Guess what, I finally got my two private courts built in Litchfield Park, Arizona. Check out my progress and the real cost to build the courts. I will be teaching here, renting the courts out, play with my friends and will build a future AirBNB home to rent.

7:30 is what you look for for the total costs of 2 post-tension courts.

Wow! The courts look amazing and this is a great video on the breakdown of the cost to build in Arizona!

I think $64,000 for two pickleball courts that's not a bad price. In CA the cost is double.

Have you considered adding a roof in the future? I see a lot of covered outdoor courts in Florida and wonder how much cheaper that is compared to fully covered indoors.

Sorry if this has already need answered: Does the play surface feel hollow or thin upon splits steps. I have played on parking structures and that is the feel of play action I’m concerned about.

Cool. What is post tension concrete?

@SteveAndSaraPickleball 5 ай бұрын

Cables in the concrete for longevity.

@jimzimmerman5288 5 ай бұрын

Fence between the courts. The fence post and court post had to be away from the post tension cables. Did you do the layout for that?

@SteveAndSaraPickleball 5 ай бұрын

I drew up the plans and the concrete contractor took care of that and put tubes in the ground for fence sleeves and patched them up when it was complete.

Did you do asphalt over the concrete, or put down extra layers of the base coating?

@SteveAndSaraPickleball 5 ай бұрын

Just concrete and court paint over that. No asphalt.

@RiomaWF 5 ай бұрын

what is a good distance from the sideline to the fence to still allow around the post shots without slamming on the fence?

@jimzimmerman5288 5 ай бұрын

Normally 5' is good. Can be less.

@SteveAndSaraPickleball 5 ай бұрын

Ideally, doing a court 34'x'64' gives you 7' on the sidelines but with my courts I did 32'x60' and it's totally fine. I have 6' on the sidelines but it would be better to have more if you have a divider fence. Without a divider fence my dimensions are idea. Good luck

Yes! As soon as I get electricity on the land. I'd love to put a metal cover structure to for hot summer play. Still dreaming about all that.

Metal way be way more expensive, I saw these bubble-looking structures. Seems like a great solution, really great airflow! Google bubble airdome tennis. @@SteveAndSaraPickleball

Looks amazing 👏🏾 but a regular noncontractor person will pay a lot more for incredible courts like that.

Those are nice looking courts. I like your color choices. The pricing for post tensioned concrete seems a bit low, but it really depends upon site prep and overall concrete thickness. The area you're in looks flat, so that would lead to a lower concrete cost. The cost on your acrylic will vary widely across the country. Even here in Texas, the prices vary pretty drastically. I charge more than what you paid, but it's lower in Houston and higher in Dallas. As for the basketball goal, I think you overpaid considering your goal looks so light weight, unless the price included freight and installation. The cost on the fence seems about right, but that will vary based on the gauge of the wire. You mentioned it was light gauge and you also added the bottom rail. I think you got a really good deal on the fence. Have fun and thanks for sharing.

@bradyyoder12 9 күн бұрын

I agree with you on the pricing. We build courts here in OH and the concrete price as well as acrylics price seemed a bit lower than our market here. Likely has to do with prep process and supply like you mentioned. The only other recommendation I would give to others looking to build is to consider the option of a pro level temporary net on the one side so that you truly have a removable net without having to deal with the holes from the sleeves. Courts look good though!

@craigmarley5926 4 ай бұрын

Real nice job. I assume it should cost about half for one court. Say about $32k. I thought outdoor courts have some kind of surfacing, not just paint over concrete.

@SteveAndSaraPickleball 3 ай бұрын

It would be hard to get it down for just $32k but I got a real good deal.

@RubberSleds 2 ай бұрын

Building concrete courts is WILD. Absolutely brutal on your body. There isn't a less forgiving surface. There has to be some reason you chose concrete over asphalt. I just can't think of a good one.

@user-zy7bh2pl6d Ай бұрын

Honest opinion. I think the little fence separating the courts is useless and a waste of money and even potentially an obstacle if the ball manages to go that far after bouncing

@rogersliu1200 4 ай бұрын

why concrete base? I was a PE for a state netball center (same base structure). The design was limestone subase+ roadbase+ 10mm asphalt+paint. This is the norm for tennis courts in Australia, which last pretty well in the extreme outdoor environment. I guess you are only building two rather than 20 courts, it is not cost-effective to bring in LPS machine to get the grade done etc.

Terrible investment. Airbnbs are falling south. As a guy worth 22 million I stay away from management. In Arizona you’ll need real shade or you’ll be dealing with alcohol, sun and heat strokes. Take the hoop out. Hoops attract eggplant people.
