Commercial Court
Construction & Renovation

New builds and renovations for schools, HOAs, apartment complexes, camps, parks & rec, religious organizations, and developers across New Jersey and the Tri-State area.

Court Construction & Renovation for Schools, HOAs & Multi-Family Communities

The Backyard Court Company builds and renovates commercial-grade sport courts across New Jersey and the Tri-State area. We work directly with facilities managers, property managers, school administrators, and developers to deliver courts that look sharp, hold up under daily use, and stay maintenance-friendly for the long haul.

From full new-build installations to resurfacing worn-out asphalt and concrete, we handle every phase in-house — site evaluation, base engineering, permitting, ADA-conscious layout, striping, fencing, lighting, and finish. Fully insured with NJ Home Improvement Contractor License #13VH14238300.

Who We Serve

Every organization is different. Here's who we build for the most.

Schools & Universities

Multi-sport courts for elementary, middle, and high schools. Playground safety surfaces, gym floor overlays, and outdoor basketball, tennis, pickleball, and futsal. ADA-conscious layouts and fast summer-break installs so we're done before students return.

Homeowners Associations (HOAs)

Community basketball and pickleball courts, shared-amenity multi-sport courts, and full renovations of aging HOA facilities. Board-friendly quotes, phased-payment options, and clean punch-list handovers.

Apartment & Multi-Family Complexes

Property managers use our courts to boost rentals, retention, and Google Maps reviews. Pickleball, half-court basketball, bocce, and multi-sport pads sized to whatever space you have on-site.

Camps & Youth Programs

Durable, low-maintenance surfaces for summer camps, day camps, and after-school programs. VersaCourt modular tile is our go-to — it drains, doesn't crack, and lasts decades.

Parks & Recreation Departments

Municipal-grade court construction and rehab. Concrete or post-tension bases, colored acrylic finishes, dedicated pickleball conversions from underused tennis courts, and full ADA striping packages.

Religious Organizations & Community Centers

Church, temple, and community-center courts that support youth ministry, fellowship, and outreach. Multi-use layouts squeeze basketball, pickleball, four-square, and gaga pits into one shared pad.

Developers & Builders

New-construction amenity courts for townhome, apartment, and mixed-use developments. Coordination with GCs and landscape architects, spec-grade documentation, and warranty-backed builds.

Court Renovation & Resurfacing

Most of the commercial courts we visit don't need a full tear-out — they need a smart renovation. We assess the base honestly and give you the least-invasive path to a court that plays and looks like new.

Crack Repair & Surface Prep

Structural crack routing, elastomeric patching, level correction, and pressure-washing. Done before any coating so the finish lasts.

Acrylic Resurfacing & Recoating

Multi-coat acrylic resurfacing on concrete or asphalt bases. Tour-grade texture, UV-stable color, standard 6–10 year lifespan before the next refresh.

VersaCourt Tile Overlays

Modular tile snaps over your existing base — perfect for aged courts where the sub-base is fine but the surface is failing. 20+ year lifespan, no downtime beyond the install week.

Restriping & Line Conversion

Regulation striping for basketball, tennis, pickleball, futsal, four-square, and any custom overlay. Fastest conversion: turning one aging tennis court into 4 pickleball courts.

Perimeter & ADA Upgrades

Fencing replacement, gate hardware, ADA-compliant approach paths, drainage correction, and LED lighting retrofits.

Commercial Surfaces

Every commercial project starts with the right base. Here's how we recommend across use cases.

Our Commercial Process

1

Site Walk & Scope

We walk the property with you (or your PM/board), inspect the existing surface, review any base drawings, and confirm what you want. Free.

2

Written Proposal

Line-item scope, surface recommendation, phased-payment schedule, and a written timeline. Insurance certificates and license documentation included.

3

Permits & Coordination

We pull the permits, coordinate with your PM or GC, schedule around camp/school-year timing, and stage the build to minimize community disruption.

4

Build & Handover

Daily job updates, punch-list walk, warranty handover, and a maintenance plan sized to your usage. We stick around after handover for the touch-ups.

Recent Commercial Projects

Tennis-to-pickleball conversions, multi-court amenity complexes, and school- and HOA-grade pickleball pads. Every project scoped, built, and handed over by our own crew.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work with schools, HOAs, and apartment complexes?

Yes. Most of our commercial work is exactly this — public and private schools, HOA amenity courts, apartment and multi-family developments, camps, parks & rec departments, and religious organizations. We handle board-approvals, phased payments, insurance certificates, and coordination with property managers or general contractors.

Can you renovate an old court instead of tearing it out?

Almost always. Most commercial courts we look at need surface work, not a rebuild. Crack repair + acrylic resurfacing, or a VersaCourt tile overlay, can give you a new-looking court for a fraction of tear-out cost. We'll tell you honestly which path makes sense.

Can you convert one tennis court into pickleball courts?

Yes — this is the single most common commercial project we do. One aging tennis court converts cleanly into 4 pickleball courts with restriping, or 2 dedicated pickleball courts with new nets. Great ROI for HOAs and municipalities.

Do you handle ADA compliance and permitting?

Yes. We design to ADA guidelines (approach paths, landings, court dimensions) and handle all local permitting. Insurance certificates and license documentation available on request.

What are your payment terms for commercial work?

Phased-payment structure aligned to project milestones — deposit at contract, progress payment at base completion, final at punch-list acceptance.

Can you install lighting and fencing too?

Yes — LED court lighting (dimmable, 5000K), perimeter fencing (chain-link or black powder-coated mesh), gates, windscreens, and drainage upgrades all included in most commercial projects.

How long does a typical commercial court take?

A resurface or restripe is usually 1–2 weeks. A new asphalt/concrete court is 4–8 weeks depending on base type and weather. VersaCourt tile overlays are the fastest — 1 week for most single-court installs.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. NJ Home Improvement Contractor License #13VH14238300. Fully insured with general liability and workers' comp. Certificates provided on request.
