To maintain traditional asphalt courts, it is recommended to have them resurfaced every 5-7 years with a fresh acrylic coating. Acrylic Resurfacer is formulated differently than basic tennis court color coatings, has more pure latex, and suspends large amounts of silica sand and other minerals for the purpose of filling voids in the surface. This restores texture and produces a longer lasting surface.
All asphalt courts will experience some level of cracking over time as well. When courts are resurfaced, cracks are filled, however most will return to the surface quickly, especially once temperatures drop.
Installing SE Tennis’ four part premium crack repair system can prevent the treated cracks from returning to the court surface.
It is a four part system consisting of tape, 2 layers of fabric, and fiberglass along the edges. When applied over a cracked court, the previous cracks will not return.
Southeastern Tennis has installed hundreds of thousands of feet of crack repair over the years and we offer a five year warranty on all cracks treated with crack repair.
