FAQs
When does a court need milling and paving rather than resurfacing? Resurfacing renews the acrylic finish over pavement that remains suitable for play. Milling and paving addresses the pavement itself by removing the specified asphalt layer and installing new pavement before applying court coatings. This more extensive work may be appropriate when pavement deterioration cannot be resolved through surface repairs alone. Evaluating the underlying condition helps determine whether fresh coatings are sufficient or the court needs a new paved surface.
Why does a newly paved court still need acrylic surfacing? Asphalt paving creates the court’s pavement base, while the acrylic system provides the colored playing surface above it. Acrylic coatings give the court its finished appearance and support consistent ball response, with markings applied to establish the sports layout. Before coating begins, the new pavement must be properly prepared and allowed to cure according to the selected system’s requirements. Paving and acrylic surfacing are separate steps with different functions.
