If you’re looking for an experienced tennis court contractor, we are the company to come to. We have been one of Florida’s top licensed tennis court construction and resurfacing company, helping homeowners get the most from their home tennis court.” The firm’s home base is in Florida, so naturally it is easier to service their customers here. The firm has served thousands of customers in Florida, but their reputation has taken them as far as Siberia, South America, AU TECH offshore base and many areas of the Caribbean. Paul then underlines the nature of the firm’s specialised service, how they offer top quality coupled with wholesale pricing, plus their seasoned experience in the industry. “We provide top home and residential tennis and basketball courts, along with running tracks, bocce ball courts and many diversified services.
