ABOUT YOUR COURT

SOME FACTORS TO CONSIDER   BUYING A TENNIS COURT With our wide range of court surfaces the only way you can be sure of getting the court that suits you is to try one. Talk to the owner about us - you'll find that we are neat, efficient and fair. Listed elsewhere in the website are a few clubs we have built courts for. In addition there are many private courts from the Humber to the Thames, and we would be pleased to arrange for you to play on one of these. We are always happy to come out and meet you to discuss the surfaces available. We will then submit our quotation and detailed specification to your requirements.   SITING YOUR TENNIS COURT An area at least 108'x54' must be found. Generally we like to construct courts 114'x56' which is the LTA recommended size for clubs. For multiple courts, ideally you should add 48' to the width for each additional court. In preference, the court should be orientated with the long dimension North-South so that the sun does not set directly into a player's eyes.   Where possible, a substantially level site should be selected to minimise machinery costs when levelling the site. Where the original ground level slopes significantly, extra space is required to form banks if expensive retaining walls are to be avoided. Ease of access is also a significant factor in pricing---about 200 tonnes of materials go into a new court so its obviously cheaper if lorries can tip directly on site.   TENNIS COURT SURFACES Anglia and Midland construct five tennis court surfaces-Texplay II, Tennitex and its Ultragrip variant, Tenniturf, Volley and Advantage and a range of sealed surfaces. All the courts are "All year round," which can be used after rain or frost. They are not "all weather" - you can't see the lines under an inch of snow!   AMlight FlOODLIGHTING To make full use of the all year round use capability of Anglia & Midland courts we can offer our own AMlight (Anglia & Midland light) floodlighting systems. These range from four column systems with halogen lights for domestic installations, to eight columns on a single court for tournament play, and extended systems for multiple courts and multisport areas. Whatever your requirement, there is an AMlight system or design capability to meet it.   ALL OUR WORK IS GUARANTEED FOR THREE YEARS We give a full three-year guarantee on materials and workmanship. The only exclusions are normal wear, maintenance according to our guides, and bulbs in our floodlighting systems. After the three-year period, we still want to know about any problems, and view these sympathetically.
