Professional Tennis Court Construction in Houston, TX
A professional tennis court in Houston should feel solid underfoot, deliver a true bounce from corner to corner and stay looking sharp through years of heat, humidity and sudden storms. It should not hold water along the baselines, fade after a couple of summers or start cracking as the clay soils move. Quality Courts & Outdoors builds tennis courts in Houston for homeowners, schools, clubs, HOAs and facilities that want a court designed around how it will really be used in this city, not just a standard layout copied from somewhere else.
From in town neighborhoods with tight setbacks to larger properties near the edges of the metro area, we begin by understanding your site, how you move through the property and what role you want the court to play in daily life.

Tennis Court Surface Options and Design Systems
The surface system is one of the biggest factors in how your court will feel, how the ball will respond and what kind of upkeep it will require. We explain the options in straightforward terms and tie them to your usage, your preferences and Houston’s climate.
Acrylic Hard Courts
Acrylic hard courts provide a familiar, crisp bounce and a clean, finished appearance. They are a strong fit for training, lessons, league play and private homes that want a traditional surface with a professional look. When installed over a properly prepared base and maintained with quality coatings, acrylic systems handle Houston’s heat, sun and heavy rain reliably.
Cushioned Tennis Court Systems
Cushioned systems add a resilient layer under the acrylic surface to soften impact without turning the court into a slow or inconsistent surface. They are often chosen by players who spend many hours on court each week, multi generational households or facilities that place a premium on comfort for knees and joints. You still get clear ball response, with a noticeably more forgiving feel underfoot.
Custom Colors, Striping and Logos
Court colors and markings are where the space starts to feel like your own. We can coordinate colors with the home, clubhouse or school branding, keep lines straight and visually balanced, and include logos or custom markings when you want the court to reflect a team, program or community identity. These details are small on paper but very visible in person.
Areas We Serve
Tennis Court Builders Serving Houston and Surrounding Areas
From the first site visit to the final line of paint, our team manages the full tennis court build so you are not coordinating separate contractors for earthwork, surfacing and fencing. We help you choose a surface system that matches your level of play, plan drainage that makes sense for Houston’s weather and soils, and finish the court with details that make it practical to use every week, not just impressive on day one.
In some projects the court needs to sit comfortably beside a pool and outdoor kitchen. In others it belongs toward the back of a deep lot, closer to trees or a green space. In each case we think about the whole setting, not only the playing dimensions.
Residential Tennis Court Construction in Houston, TX
For a home court in Houston, the layout has to respect the way the property already works. That can mean designing around mature oaks in West U, fitting a full size court into a deep lot near Tanglewood or finding a smart orientation on a corner lot inside the Loop. We look at privacy, sun angles, nearby windows, traffic noise and yard circulation, then design a court that fits naturally into that context.
Whether you plan to use the court for serious practice, relaxed evening play with friends or as a flexible surface for kids and family gatherings, we shape the design and surface choice around that reality from the start.
Commercial, School and HOA Tennis Courts in Houston, TX
Schools, HOAs and private facilities in Houston need courts that stand up to constant use and a wide range of players. For these projects we focus on durability, predictable play and details that make the courts easier to manage. That includes appropriate fencing, gates, windscreens where needed and lighting layouts that support safe, comfortable evening use. The result is a set of courts that stay in service and look presentable without constant attention.
Built for Houston Weather, Drainage and Long Term Performance
Houston’s combination of strong sun, heavy rain and expansive clay soils will quickly reveal whether a court was built with the right priorities. The difference between a surface that still performs years from now and one that becomes a recurring problem is usually in the work you do not see.
Before we talk about colors or logos, we look at water. We study how rain moves across the property today, where it tends to collect and how nearby roofs, driveways and landscaping influence runoff. Then we set court elevations and slopes so water leaves the playing surface efficiently and moves into areas designed to handle it. Good drainage reduces puddling, protects coatings and shortens the time between a storm and your next match.
Drainage and Water Management
A stable base is what supports a consistent bounce and a solid feel underfoot. Houston’s soils can expand and contract with moisture, so base work cannot be an afterthought. We prepare the subgrade, build and compact the base correctly and address any soft or unsuitable material before installing the surface system. This is what helps prevent low spots, cracking and uneven zones that change how the ball plays.
Base Preparation and Stability
Players should be able to move, stop and change direction without questioning their footing. We use proven surface systems and finishes chosen to provide dependable traction and smooth footwork so the court feels consistent from one end to the other. The goal is simple, a court where you focus on the game, not on the surface.
Traction, Safety and True Play
Lighting extends practical playing hours and is especially valuable in Houston summers when evenings are more comfortable than mid afternoon. We design lighting layouts that support good visibility on court and sit neatly within the look of the home, campus or facility.

Tennis Court Resurfacing and Repairs in Houston, TX
If you already have a tennis court in Houston, it may not require a full rebuild. When the base is still structurally sound, resurfacing and targeted repairs can restore traction, refresh appearance and extend the useful life of the court. We start by assessing what is happening on and under the surface before recommending a path forward.
Common Signs a Court Needs Resurfacing
-
Cracks, chips or fine fracture patterns that continue to spread
-
Fading, chalky or peeling coatings that expose older layers
-
Areas that feel slick or uneven underfoot
-
Shallow depressions that hold water after rain
-
Lines that have become dull, broken or hard to see
Resurfacing vs. Full Rebuild
Resurfacing is a smart option when the base and drainage are still doing their job. If damage is being driven by poor drainage, movement in the base or other underlying issues, new coatings alone will not solve the problem. In those cases we explain what we have found and recommend corrective work first so any new surface is supported properly.
