En Tout Cas are members of SAPCA, the UK's sports and play contractors' association. We have been building tennis courts for more than 100 years. Some aspects of the game have remained unchanged while others have altered dramatically. Tennis has never been more popular and the appeal of a court in your own home is enduring. There are four eternal questions that our customers ask us:
• How much space do I need for a tennis court?
• Do I need planning permission?
• What's involved in tennis court construction?
• Which tennis court surface do I need?
• Will a new court add value to my home?
Here is a guide to all four of these key issues.
One of the first questions about tennis court construction, is how much space do you need? Just how big is a tennis court?
The dimensions of a tennis court have not changed since the game was regulated in 1875, even though almost every other aspect of the sport and its players has evolved.
The original dimensions were laid down in feet, but our plans show imperial and metric dimensions. In broad terms, the tennis court enclosed by a fence will occupy a space somewhere between 120 feet by 60 feet and 108 feet by 52 feet. A singles-only court can be accommodated in a space 45 feet wide.
Remember too that the orientation of the court is very important - no one want to be receiving serve facing into a bright sun.
FENCING
Tennis court fencing plays an important part in the presentation and practicality of a tennis court. Our approach is to use our own design,elegant patented fences complement the court and make it an attractive part of the garden.
