8 Steps to Building Your Court
Customer satisfaction and service are our top priorities. From start to finish our team will be with you through the process, and we will continue to follow-up and stay with you well beyond the completion of your court construction. There are 8 steps to our sales and court construction customer service commitment.
In this Introductory Phase - you get to know our product offerings, the sales representative you will be working with and our company. We also get to know your wants, needs, the space and budget. At the end of these conversations, we should both be able to decide if our company and products are a good fit for you.
You’ve entered the Design & Estimate stage of building your dream. In this stage we’ll conduct a full on-site evaluation, help solidify a court design and address all of the questions you may have.
Our goal for this stage is to learn your property, your vision of the project and help design the best space possible for you. We want to help you fully understand your property, our solutions and the costs associated – getting you all the information needed to decide whether to move forward with the project or not.
Congratulations, you’ve entered the Contract Stage of your project and have agreed to move forward with the project. You should have a size, location and design agreed upon verbally with your sales rep.
Our goal in this step is for you to fully understand the scope of work, our responsibilities, and your responsibilities throughout the scope of the project. Here we collect an initial payment to procure materials and get the construction process started.
Now you are in our Project Queue where we work on projects in a first in, first out manner. All customers are required to have completed the design and contract phases before being assigned an internal job number, product ordered and placed in the queue.
During this time, we are dedicating our resources to expertly completing other projects, ensuring a top-quality product. When we get to your project, we guarantee you'll have the same experience. We are also procuring and receiving all your finish out materials and preparing to execute your project.
You are now in the Site Prep/ Concrete Work Phase. Your project is about to start! Soon we will be mobilizing crews to complete the base of your court.
Reminder: by this point you should have done all of the following tasks:
- Called 811 for an inspection and marking of utility lines.
- HOA and/or city approvals completed.
- Irrigation capping/ rerouting in the immediate area of the court.
- Any pre-landscaping completed.
- Tree Removal (if not in our scope).
- Site Preparation (if not in our scope).
- Informing Neighbors of upcoming project.
How Does This Work?
- We will confirm the location of the court. We will be having an onsite meeting to layout the court corners with the concrete crew. It’s vitally important to be at this meeting and approve the plan. If you cannot make this meeting, please give me a call to reschedule. After this meeting, any changes to the location, elevation or size of the court will likely cost additional money and time. During this meeting we will:
- Mark the corners of the court and you will need to approve them.
- Discuss Access point for equipment.
- Locate Utility & water shutoff point
- Site preparation: Remove any agreed upon trees and begin excavation/ leveling the area for the slab.
- Form the perimeter of the court including any retaining walls and turn down beams. This may include hauling in fill material.
- Concrete Pour – Once the area is prepared, there will be a 1-day concrete pour where all of the concrete will be placed and finished. Please review important details below to help execute this day as smoothly as possible. I will send you another notice at least 1 day prior to pour to remind you of the details below.
This phase typically takes 1 to 3 weeks.
In this stage our crew comes out to install any components, basketball goals, fencing, net adjustment systems, and any other accessories you decided on for your court.
We take special care to install each component with care and precision.
The finishing touches of your court will be completed during these steps. Once your court looks beautiful give it a couple days for the painted lines to dry and your enjoying time with loved ones.
All we have left is a final walkthrough with to deliver the court, teach you how to use all the court components, and take final photos. If you have any concerns or questions, this will be the time to bring these up. Please have as many people from your family as possible for this demonstration of how the court works.
