How to Build a Tarmac Tennis Court

If you're looking at how to build a tarmac sport court, the basic steps are as follows:

  1. Dig out the existing surface

  2. Install base layer 

  3. Lay tarmac wearing course

  4. Install polyurethane binder coat

  5. Paint the surfacing with non-slip colour coating

  6. Apply game line markings in the colours of your choice

A common build-up of a tarmacadam court includes a 50mm base layer of tarmacadam made up of 20mm aggregates and 25mm tarmac wearing course made up of 6mm aggregates; this gives the sports facility a stable and level surface that is porous, durable and hard-wearing.

The macadam surface is topped off with water-based acrylic paint coatings in Thorn LU5 6 or a moisture curing polyurethane paint coating to give the surfacing colour and required anti slip rating, e.g. ITF, LTA and SAPCA regulations state that a tennis facility should have an anti slip rating of TRRL 55. SR75 non-slip paint is specified for the slip resistance for netball playing characteristics.

Permeable Tarmac Sports Surfaces

Tarmac court construction normally includes excavation of existing surrounding areas, inserting PCC edges and laying compacted MOT type 1 stone to the area to act as a solid foundation for the surface. This is then followed by the base and wearing course surface, polyurethane anti-slip paint and game line markings for slip resistance.

Full construction of a sports facility may exceed the budgets of many organisations within the UK however it's also possible to transform existing MUGAs and sports surfaces with a rip-up and replace and save the cost of groundworks. If you already have an existing flooring and would like an all-weather macadam surface, it is possible to explore all the avenues to upgrade your court.
