How It Works
Our sports-court striping process:
- Site survey. We measure the existing slab or asphalt surface, noting condition, drainage, and surrounding setbacks. A USA Pickleball-compliant court is 20 feet wide by 44 feet long with recommended total playing area of 30 feet by 60 feet for end-zone clearance.
- Surface prep. We clean the surface of debris, mildew (common on shaded South Florida concrete), and loose paint. Pressure washing where needed, acid-etch on brand-new slabs to improve paint adhesion.
- Primer or base coat. On unpainted concrete or asphalt, we apply an acrylic primer or resurfacer to establish a uniform base. On existing painted courts, we verify adhesion of the old color before restriping.
- Line layout. We chalk-line the court geometry to USA Pickleball, NCAA, NBA, or ITF specifications depending on sport. For pickleball: 2-inch-wide lines, 7-foot non-volley zones (the “kitchen”), 20×44 playing area.
- Line painting. Two-coat acrylic traffic paint in the specified color. Dual-striping for tennis-to-pickleball conversions uses contrasting colors so players can distinguish both layouts.
- Cure. Acrylic court paint cures in 24-48 hours depending on humidity. We time morning application to give the paint the full dry window before any afternoon thunderstorm.
Pickleball Boom — HOAs, Country Clubs & Palm Beach County Parks
Palm Beach County has seen explosive pickleball growth over the past three years. HOA communities, country clubs, and PBC Parks recreation facilities have added or converted courts at an accelerating pace. The Delray Beach Open Pickleball Championship, PBC Parks tournaments, and private-club member events drive demand for USA-Pickleball-spec courts with a 2-year to 3-year refresh cycle. Resort properties along A1A and in Jupiter / Abacoa add courts specifically for snowbird-season play from December through April.
We handle every scope: single-court installations on retrofit surfaces, four-court conversions from a single tennis court (standard dimensions allow this conversion with no surface modification), multi-sport dual-striping (tennis + pickleball on the same court with contrasting line colors), and full-facility refreshes on municipal park properties. The fastest-growing request is HOA tennis-to-pickleball conversion because tennis participation has declined in many communities while pickleball demand outpaces court supply.
Playground Markings for Schools & Recreation Centers
Beyond competitive sports courts, we stripe playground game markings — hopscotch, four-square, tether-ball circles, basketball keys, letter and number grids, world-map layouts, and interactive learning patterns. Schools, childcare facilities, HOA recreation areas, municipal parks, and church properties across Palm Beach, St. Lucie, and Martin counties use playground markings to increase structured-play opportunities on existing paved areas. The same durable acrylic traffic paint used on sports courts is applied with stencils for consistent shape, and the 2-to-3-year service life matches a typical maintenance-cycle budget.
Florida Heat & Acrylic Cure Schedule
South Florida heat and humidity affect acrylic cure quality. Surface temperatures above 140°F cause acrylic to skin over before fully wetting out the substrate, which produces weak adhesion and early peeling. Humidity above 85 percent extends cure time and risks surface blush (a white haze that requires buffing and recoat). We schedule court painting for early-morning windows (6-10 a.m.) during summer months to hit surface temperatures below 120°F, and we prefer the November-April dry-season window for full-day applications because humidity is lower and thunderstorm risk is reduced.
Why Choose Us
We stripe courts to governing-body specifications (USA Pickleball, NCAA, NBA, ITF) rather than rough approximations, so tournament play is valid on every court we install. Dual-striping and multi-sport layouts designed to minimize line-confusion during play. Maintenance contracts scheduled around HOA and country-club event calendars. For Palm Beach County school districts and municipal parks, we coordinate with facility managers on permit, fencing, and access logistics.

Frequently Asked Questions About Sports Court Striping in Palm Beach, FL
What sports courts can 1-800-STRIPER of Palm Beach stripe?
We stripe pickleball courts to USA Pickleball specifications, basketball courts (full-size and half-court), tennis courts, multi-sport combinations, and playground game markings. Durable acrylic traffic paint is used for outdoor courts because it tolerates South Florida UV and summer heat better than standard traffic paint. For gym floors and indoor courts, specialized indoor-rated court paint is applied. Properties served include HOAs, country clubs, condominium associations, apartment communities, schools, municipal parks, and resort properties across Palm Beach, St. Lucie, and Martin counties.
What are the USA Pickleball specifications for a competition court?
A USA Pickleball-compliant court is 20 feet wide by 44 feet long for play area, with a minimum recommended total playing area of 30 feet by 60 feet to allow for end-zone clearance. The net is 36 inches at the sidelines and 34 inches at the center. Non-volley zones (the “kitchen”) extend 7 feet from the net on each side. Lines are typically 2 inches wide. 1-800-STRIPER of Palm Beach stripes to these specifications for any pickleball scope.
How long does outdoor court striping last in South Florida?
Outdoor court striping in Palm Beach typically lasts 2 to 3 years before a noticeable refresh is needed — shorter than cooler or inland climates because South Florida UV, afternoon thunderstorms, and coastal salt-air wear acrylic line paint faster. Pickleball courts used 20 or more hours per week may show scuff lines along the baselines and kitchen line within two years. HOAs, country clubs, and resort properties along A1A and the Palm Beach Island corridor often plan a re-striping cycle every 24 months to match the snowbird-season play schedule.
Can you convert an existing tennis court to pickleball courts?
Yes. A standard 60-by-120-foot tennis court can be converted to four pickleball courts with the tennis net removed or lowered, or it can be dual-striped to support both sports on the same surface. Dual striping uses two contrasting line colors — typically white for tennis and a contrasting color like blue, yellow, or green for pickleball — so players can distinguish the court layouts at a glance. 1-800-STRIPER of Palm Beach handles both conversions and dual-striping across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast.
How long does it take to stripe a new sports court?
A standard pickleball or half-court basketball installation takes one day — typically four to six hours of actual application time, plus cure time for the acrylic paint. Full-size tennis and basketball courts take one to two days depending on color count and detail. We schedule outdoor court striping during the dry, stable morning windows in South Florida because afternoon thunderstorms can wash fresh acrylic paint before it cures. Indoor courts are not weather-limited.
Does court striping include playground markings?
Yes — we stripe playground game markings (hopscotch, four-square, tether-ball circles, letter and number grids, basketball keys) in the same mobilization as any adjacent sports court work. Playground markings use the same durable acrylic traffic paint as sports courts and are typically applied with stencils for consistent shape. Schools, parks, childcare facilities, and HOA recreation areas across Palm Beach, St. Lucie, and Martin counties use us for both sports-court striping and playground game markings. —
