A MESSAGE FROM ILLINOIS'S #1 PEORIA TENNIS COURT RESURFACING TEAM:
Peoria, IL facility manager,
We resurface tennis and pickleball courts — crack repair, patching, acrylic colour coats and new line marking. Done on time it is a coat of surfacing; left too long the cracks reach the base and the job becomes reconstruction. We work across Peoria and the towns around it.
The colour has worn through, the lines have gone faint, and cracks are spreading a little further every winter. Water getting into a crack and freezing is what turns a resurfacing job into a rebuild, and the window between those two is shorter than most people expect. You want somebody who turns up, tells you straight what it needs, and does it properly the first time. The typical Peoria property dates to around 1966, so the building stock here is largely post-war. With roughly 79 freeze-thaw days a year, anything that traps water moves and cracks.
Someone attends, inspects the real condition and takes measurements. Nothing here is priced off a photo.
Broken out line by line, including what is excluded, so another company's number means something next to ours.
Sometimes the answer is that it does not need doing yet. We would rather tell you that than sell you something.
You might know this as tennis court repair. Same work, either name. Everything below is work we handle directly, not passed to a third party.
Distinguishing surface crazing from structural cracking that moves, and identifying birdbaths where water sits. This determines whether a resurface is appropriate at all.
Court pressure washed, vegetation and organic growth removed, and any failing existing coating scraped back. Coating over dirt or algae is a guaranteed adhesion failure.
Cracks routed, cleaned and filled with an appropriate patching system. Larger moving cracks may need a fabric or membrane bridging system rather than simple filler.
Standing water is both a playing and a durability problem. Birdbaths are filled and feathered so the surface drains, usually checked by flooding the court and marking where water stands.
A resurfacer levels texture and seals, then color coats are applied. The number of coats and the sand loading in them set the pace of the finished surface.
Lines laid out to specification, taped and painted. Adding pickleball lines, whether blended or in a contrasting color, is a common addition worth deciding before striping.
A cross-section of the jobs we handle around Peoria — different sizes, different conditions, same standard.
We work Peoria and the towns around it every week. We also cover Pekin, Morton, Washington, Bartonville, Chillicothe, Creve Coeur, Dunlap and Metamora. We know what the buildings here are like and how they age.
Licensed, insured, and directly employed. Your job does not get passed to whoever happened to be free that week.
This is the whole job for us. Tennis Court Resurfacing is not something we picked up to fill gaps between other work. Cracks evaluated for movement and the court flooded to reveal where water stands. Both determine scope, and both should happen before a firm price is given.
The price is agreed up front. If we find something that changes it, you see the thing itself before you see a new number.

Larger moving cracks may need a fabric or membrane bridging system rather than simple filler.. Which one is right depends on what we find when we look at it, and we will walk you through the trade-offs rather than picking for you.
Surface and crack assessment is the one we are asked about most often in Peoria. Distinguishing surface crazing from structural cracking that moves, and identifying birdbaths where water sits. This determines whether a resurface is appropriate at all.
Most jobs land between $4,000 and $16,000 per court, depending on condition and scope. We come out, look at it, and give you a written estimate at no charge. We are not the cheapest outfit in Peoria and we will not pretend to be – but you will know exactly what you are paying for before anything starts.
Crack severity: The largest unknown. Surface crazing is routine; structural cracks that open and close seasonally may require a membrane system or an overlay, which moves the job into a different price category entirely. That is usually the biggest single swing in a quote, which is why we look before we price.
Yes. We stand behind what we do and we put the terms in writing with the estimate, so the guarantee is not a handshake you have to remember later.
