Pickleball courts in South Salt Lake
Whether your South Salt Lake yard is level ground or a hillside with a view, the court has to end up flat. We handle the digging, compacted base and retaining walls, then pour a slab that drains gently in one direction and cures before the court surface goes on.
A pickleball court measures 20 by 44 feet, yet backyard pads around the valley commonly run about 30 by 60 feet so players have room behind the baselines and along the sides. Summer evening sun drops low in the west across the Wasatch Front, so backyard courts are usually turned with the long axis roughly north to south.
Pace off where the court would go in your South Salt Lake yard, then pass the numbers along by form or phone. A callback follows with questions about slope and access, and the on-site estimate is free.

Around South Salt Lake
Plenty of South Salt Lake players near Windsor Circle, Forest Dale Historic District and Harmony Park drive to public courts for a game. A backyard court brings that game home, and it plays every bit as well when the slab is flat, drained and free of joints in the lines.
Where old lake clay lies under a yard, it holds water and shifts with it, so court pads there get soft spots dug out and a compacted gravel base before the slab.
Beyond South Salt Lake, backyard pickleball and sport courts are also planned and built for yards in Millcreek, Murray, Taylorsville and Holladay, slopes and all.

Questions
South Salt Lake FAQs
How much yard does a pickleball court need in South Salt Lake?
The court is 20 by 44 feet, and about 30 by 60 feet of slab gives comfortable room to play. Smaller pads can still work for casual games, and sloped yards can often gain flat space with a retaining wall.
Do I need a permit for a backyard court in South Salt Lake?
It depends on the city and the project. Large slabs, retaining walls over about 4 feet and grading that changes drainage can bring permits, and HOAs often want to see a court plan. Digging waits until 811 has flagged the buried lines.
When can a court in South Salt Lake be poured?
Most courts are poured between spring and fall, when the ground isn't frozen. After the pour, the slab cures for several weeks before the acrylic surface goes on, so an early-season start means more of the year on the court.
Which way should a South Salt Lake court face?
Roughly north to south along its long axis, so the rising and setting sun stays out of players' eyes. Yard shape sometimes forces a compromise, and a few degrees off is fine.
How do I get a court estimate in South Salt Lake?
Phone (801) 751-6099 or use the form with your yard's rough size, the slope and the games you want. The contractor will reach out to talk it over and arrange a yard visit, and there's no charge for the estimate.
What does a backyard pickleball court cost?
Your yard sets most of it. A flat, open lawn with easy access needs far less excavation than a sloped lot that has to be cut, filled and held with retaining walls. Court size, runout room, slab design and add-ons like a patio or walkway matter too, and the estimate is free after a walk around the yard.
