His and her sinks, open floor plans, and pools used to be the hottest trends in real estate.  Then the trend was signature golf courses and beach clubs.  Now all eyes are on pickleball courts. These days, if you want to sell your house, build a pickleball court. That’s right. A recent spike in keyword search data from Zillow shows pickleball courts are the hot new commodity people want in a new place to live.

What Real Estate Agents Are Saying

Real estate agents are witnessing a trend where homeowners are reconfiguring their spaces to accommodate pickleball courts.  They are even converting driveways or repurposing existing sports facilities on ultra-luxury properties.  Pickleball courts at home increase home values.

As a homeowner when you add a pickleball court you immediately boost your property value.   Adding a tennis or pickleball court to a property is similar to upgrading a kitchen or bathroom – it can provide an instant boost in value.  The logic is simple: recreational spaces are attractive features that potential buyers are willing to pay extra for.

Homes equipped with courts cater to a broad audience, potentially speeding up the sale process.  It allows homeowners and their families to engage in a fun, healthy activity without leaving their property.

Pickleball Sports Game Courts Impact on Landscape and Space

It is essential to consider the overall impact on the landscape. A well-designed court can enhance the aesthetic appeal of a property. Strategic placement and landscaping around the court can create a serene, resort-like ambiance. However, homeowners must ensure they have ample space so that the court doesn’t feel cramped or diminish the utility of the backyard.
While adding a pickleball court is a significant investment, the benefits of property value, lifestyle upgrades, and potential income make it a worthy consideration.

pickleball-courts-at-home-increase-home-values-glen-head-ny1Why Choose Asphalt Court Surfaces

Fast installation: One of the main advantages of using an asphalt surface for pickleball courts is the quick installation. Asphalt can be laid in a matter of days, allowing for a fast turnaround time for court construction. This is particularly advantageous for those who want to have their pickleball court ready for use as soon as possible.

Less costly: Asphalt is less expensive than other court materials such as concrete or clay, making it a more budget-friendly option.

Easily maintained: Asphalt surfaces are relatively easy to maintain, which is important for a pickleball court with frequent use. Regular sweeping and cleaning can help to keep the court free of debris while sealing every couple of years can help to protect the surface from weathering and cracking. Any necessary repairs can be easily made by filling in cracks or holes with asphalt patching material.

Weather-resistant: Asphalt can withstand various weather conditions without becoming damaged or deteriorating.

Why Choose a Concrete Court

Durability: Concrete surfaces are incredibly durable and can withstand heavy use. It lasts longer than asphalt. This makes them an ideal choice for pickleball courts with a lot of activity. Concrete surfaces are also resistant to weathering, which helps to extend their lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.

Low maintenance: Concrete surfaces require minimal maintenance. Regular sweeping and cleaning can help to keep the court free of debris, while periodic sealing can help to protect the surface from weathering and staining. Any necessary repairs needed can be easily made by filling in cracks or holes with concrete patching material.

Cost-effective: While the initial installation cost may be higher than asphalt, the long-term durability and low maintenance requirements of concrete can help to reduce costs over time.

Pickleball Court Built in Glen Head NY

Gappsi recently built a pickleball sports game court in Glen Head NY. The Pickleball court was installed using a recycled concrete base and three and a half inches (3 1/2 inches) of compacted asphalt, then painted with California Sports Surfaces court paint.

We used a dark blue for the Pickleball court area and a dark green for the out-of-bounce area. The court was striped with white lines to finish it.

MultiSports Game Courts For Pickleball And Tennis

Posted by Gappsi Group on

MultiSports-Game-Courts-For-Pickleball-And-Tennis1

MultiSports Game Courts For Pickleball and Tennis in the backyard are a great way to optimize space in your driveway, on your property, or playground. With the growing popularity of Pickleball, there has been a demand for smaller courts and combination courts to accommodate players. In areas where the interest in Pickleball exceeds tennis, blended lines are added in another color so that the courts can be used for both sports.

Pickleball has become one of the fastest-growing sports in the nation. The demand for places to play Pickleball leads to the question, “Can Pickleball be played on a tennis court?”

Yes, Pickleball can be played on a tennis court surface, and we will discuss some great options to keep Tennis and Pickleball players happy.

Pickleball Lines Blended With Tennis Court Lines

A common option, that is working well, is to maximize the current “real estate” of existing tennis courts. That is usually a “win-win” and has been done for years with tennis and basketball court combinations. By USTA and ITF rules, tennis court lines must be white. Pickleball court lines can be added in a different color so that tennis or pickleball can be played on the same court (at different times, of course) and the eye can focus on the applicable set of playing lines.

**The USTA’s children’s tennis program known as 10 & under tennis recommends painting the Pickleball lines in the same color family as the court surface color. For example, if the court base color is blue, apply Pickleball lines in a shade of blue that is lighter or darker than the surface color. This makes the lines less distracting to tennis players.

What Is a Custom MultiSports Game Courts?

When it comes to active sports, most games require a large area of land e.g., tennis or soccer. Then it may also be challenging when different family members have different sports preferences.

That’s where multisports game courts come to your rescue.

Multisports game courts have a customized design that caters to all your favorite sports. And it is only a quarter the size of a standard tennis court. An average multi-game court is about 30’ x 60’ or 1,800 sq. ft. You can alter the multi-game court dimensions based on your requirements.

How Is It Beneficial?

Customized multisports game courts create more efficient use of space and land. When you have a limited budget, multi-purpose sporting courts are an economical solution.

Custom multi-game courts can accommodate up to 8 games. These include games like:

  • giant chess
  • badminton
  • basketball
  • shuffleboard
  • bocce ball
  • giant pool
  • tetherball
  • batting cage
  • putting green

Various combinations of these can be incorporated depending on your preference and the size of the court. Most court dimensions range from 18′ x 18′ to 56′ x 104′.

Further, these courts allow you to play different sports depending on the season. For instance, you can practice hockey on an outdoor court in January. So instead of building separate areas for the different games, you can simply take down the nets and play hockey on your tennis courts. Or add a couple of all-pro-hoops to your court for basketball games. This way, you can save land, money, and tonnes of expenses in maintenance.

Home Pickleball Sports Game Courts Are The New Backyard Swimming Pool

Posted by Gappsi Group on

Home-Pickleball-Sports-Game-Courts1Home Pickleball Sports Game Courts Are The New Backyard Swimming Pool!  Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America and is close to being the fastest-growing sport in the world. However, to play the sport you NEED the court.  Our team at Gappsi has retrofitted former tennis courts into new pickleball courts via our court resurfacing and painting. We have enhanced basketball courts into multipurpose sports game courts by adding pickleball striping.

The simple but exciting game can be played by people of all ages, making it a sport for everyone. If there is enough space on the property, get the most out of it by having a pickleball court to spend some fun and playtime with friends and family. Building a court from scratch is not simple, but a sports game court construction company like Gappsi will be more than happy to assist.

Pickleball Sports Game Courts Surfaces

Pickleball borrows a lot from tennis. Thus, it’s no surprise that a pickleball court surface is similar to a tennis court surface. As with tennis courts, pickleball courts are often made from either concrete or asphalt. Texturing is done using non-aggressive, round silica sand to provide a slip-free surface when playing.

Home-Pickleball-Sports-Game-CourtsPickleball Construction

Since pickleball is easy to play, you may think pickleball court construction is as easy as pouring a driveway. However, there are several considerations to keep in mind, including the size of the court, slope surface, drainage, and surface texture. Thus, it’s a good idea to hire a professional pickleball court installer to do the job for you.

Pickleball courts are similar to doubles badminton courts (20 x 44 feet). Similarly, the net height is 34″ in the middle and 36″ at the sidelines. They are striped like tennis courts with left and right service courts and a non-volley area in front of the net.

If multiple courts are nearby, fencing is essential to protect those playing on other courts. The American Sports Builders Association recommends orienting your pickleball court north-south to ensure the sun or shadows on the court surface don’t obstruct the player’s vision.

Before pickleball court construction begins, check the area for low spots and cracks. Level or fill these deficiencies before proceeding. The courts should have a slope for drainage. Standing water can weaken the playing surface or force players to wait longer after it rains to play. If applying an acrylic finish, make sure the underlying asphalt or concrete surface is dry and clean before the finish adheres.

Sports Game Courts Dimensions

A typical pickleball court is 20 feet wide by 44 feet long. The width of the court is split into two 10-foot sections: the right and left service areas. The length is split into two 22-foot sections on either side of the net. The 22-foot sections are then each split into 7 feet of non-volley space and 15 feet of the service area.

Pickleball Sports Game Courts Nets

A typical net on a pickleball court is 36 inches tall (with a center height of 34 inches) and covers the width of the court at 20 feet long. You don’t need any sort of fancy permanent net taking up space in your driveway or basement; a portable net is a great alternative. Plenty of net options will work for either indoor or outdoor play, but you can also go with a sturdier net to withstand wind or other outdoor conditions, or a simpler net for indoor games.

Asphalt is the preferred foundation for pickleball courts in New York due to our varying climates. Concrete is too brittle to withstand the constant heating and cooling that come with each season. Concrete court surfaces are much harder on the feet and legs of players as well. The texture of asphalt also ensures excellent adhesion for the color coating and sealants applied.
