Build a Pickleball Court in Chesapeake, Virginia
Planning a pickleball court in Chesapeake?
We provide end-to-end design, construction, installation, and customization for backyards, clubs, schools, and public parks—tuned to Tidewater conditions and the City’s review process so your court plays true year-round. We coordinate permits and inspections with Chesapeake’s Building Permits, Plan Review & Inspections team, which administers plan approval, permits, and field inspections under Virginia’s Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC).
Submittals are streamlined through the City’s eBUILD portal. If your site lies within a Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area (CBPA) or touches Resource Protection Areas, we prepare the CBPA package and represent you before the CBPA Review Committee/Board when an exception is required.
Because Chesapeake operates a regulated MS4 stormwater system, outdoor projects that disturb soil are planned with stormwater compliance in mind—and when thresholds are met, we help obtain coverage under Virginia DEQ’s VPDES Construction General Permit.
Why Choose Local Pickleball Court Builders
Coastal humidity, nor’easters, high water tables, and freeze–thaw cycles all influence how a court should be built in Chesapeake. We follow USA Pickleball guidance—20′ × 44′ playing lines, recommended north–south orientation, and a properly sized, sloped pad—so bounce and footing stay consistent.
We handle:
Custom courts for residential, commercial, and community sites
Installations on asphalt or post-tensioned concrete with engineered sub-base and drainage that meet state/city expectations
Full conversions from tennis/basketball to dedicated or blended pickleball layouts
Low-maintenance coating systems designed for four-season Mid-Atlantic use
Services for Every Stage
Whether you’re starting fresh or improving an existing court, we offer:
Court Construction & Installation
We map utilities, set grades for runoff, compact a stable base, apply premium surfacing, and stripe to regulation. When site plan or stormwater review is triggered, we coordinate with the City and follow DEQ construction-stormwater requirements (e.g., VPDES CGP coverage when land-disturbance thresholds are met).
Pickleball Court Painting, Court Resurfacing, & Repairs
Sun, salt air, and heavy year-round play can cause cracking, color fade, puddling, and slick spots. Our resurfacing restores predictable play with crack routing/sealing, low-spot leveling, color recoats, and precise re-striping—paired with routine care consistent with the Virginia Maintenance Code.
Backyard and Commercial Court Solutions
Backyard builds maximize practice time at home. For clubs, schools, and rec programs, multi-court layouts support lessons, leagues, and events—plus add-ons like fencing, windscreens, divider nets, benches, and low-glare LED lighting. If your project lies within CBPA buffers, we assemble the exception package and shepherd it through the City’s process.

The City’s parks page lists locations, lighting, and rental details, underscoring strong local momentum.
Delivering a reliable surface on the Coastal Plain means smart planning: set court orientation to limit sun glare, engineer drainage for frequent rains and high water tables, build a stable, frost-aware base, and finish with professional coatings and regulation lines. USA Pickleball specifies 20′ × 44′ playing lines and recommends a north–south layout where possible—baseline specs that keep bounce and visibility consistent.
Upkeep matters too. Salt air, heat, storms, and steady play can lead to cracking, color fade, puddling, and traction loss. A preventative care schedule—crack routing/sealing, low-spot leveling, color recoats, and precise re-striping—helps courts stay safe and predictable. For outdoor projects, coordinating site work with the City’s Stormwater Management and MS4 programs supports long-term durability and compliance.
From ground-up builds to resurfacing and repairs, Chesapeake offers clear pathways to expand quality pickleball access—so beginners and league players alike have dependable places to play as the sport keeps growing locally.
