Pickleball has quickly become one of the world's favorite recreational sports, drawing both recreational players and spectators into its fold. If you're considering building a court at your home or community, it is crucial that you understand its costs associated with construction before starting construction.
Cost estimates for pickleball courts will depend on multiple variables, including surface type and seating and lighting for evening play. Furthermore, price could fluctuate based on who supplies tiles for installation as well as project management services or does it themselves.
One of the key components of any court is its surface material, whether that be concrete or asphalt. A concrete surface generally costs between $9K-18,000 while asphalt has its own unique advantages and disadvantages; professional contractors will be able to give an accurate estimation for what surface will cost for your particular court surface material.
Not only must you factor in the cost of surfacing, but also excavation and site prep work. A contractor must clear away vegetation before excavating and grading, pouring cement or asphalt, painting it over, installing finishing touches as well as any necessary finishing touches - this may vary based on labor rates, wage differences or location factors.
Other aspects to keep in mind include cost, lighting and accessories. A net can cost anywhere between $50 and $1,000 depending on whether it is portable or permanent in nature; posts for this net should also be purchased or built from various materials so as to meet all specifications necessary for optimal playback.
