Frequently Asked Questions
My yard isn’t huge. What’s the minimum space I need for a bocce court? While a regulation court is quite large, most residential courts are built to fit the space you have available. We often build courts around 10 feet by 60 feet, but the final dimensions are completely flexible. The best approach is to have us look at your property so we can design a court that feels like a natural and intentional part of your landscape.
How much easier is a synthetic turf court to maintain compared to a traditional one? The difference is significant. A traditional bluestone court requires regular raking to keep the surface even, and cleaning out leaves or pine needles can be a tedious task. With a synthetic turf court, maintenance is as simple as using a leaf blower to clear away any debris. This lets you spend your time playing the game, not preparing the court.
Does playing on synthetic turf feel different than playing on a traditional bluestone court? Modern synthetic turf is engineered to provide an excellent playing experience. It offers a smooth and consistent surface, allowing the balls to roll true every time. Our exclusive deluxe turf is even designed to meet professional standards, so you get an authentic feel without any of the traditional upkeep.
Are the court designs limited to the Basic, Premium, and Deluxe packages? Not at all. Think of those packages as starting points to help you understand the options. We design and build completely custom courts tailored to your backyard’s style, your budget, and how you plan to use the space. We can help you choose the right materials and features to create a court that’s perfect for you.
