Pickleball floor grinding starts ahead of court painting
Watch: Contractors prepare to grind Old Coast Pickleball’s indoor court floors ahead of painting.
Before the grand opening of Old Coast Pickleball, CourtReserve co-founders Tim and Ashley Owens had to ensure the club’s flooring was perfectly prepared for the upcoming activities.
One crucial step in this process was grinding the floors. Floor grinding is essential as it smooths out any imperfections, removes debris, and ensures a level surface, which is vital for the application of paint and coatings.
This preparation not only enhances the durability of the floor but also provides a safe and high-quality playing surface for the members.
Properly ground floors allow the paint and coatings to adhere better, ensuring that the vibrant court lines and non-slip surfaces last longer and withstand the wear and tear of regular play.
Tim and Ashley understood that meticulous preparation was key to delivering an exceptional experience for their players, starting with the very foundation they would play on.
💡 Pro tip: apply a suitable coating for pickleball courts
Use a high-quality coating designed for sports courts to protect the surface and provide the right amount of grip for players. Proper coating enhances safety and performance.

CourtReserve has allowed us to meet and help so many of you from every corner of the world, and we’ve loved every minute of it. You all have been an invaluable part of the inspiration that helped us take this leap into club ownership.
Thank you for being a part of our CourtReserve AND Old Coast Pickleball journey. And thank you for believing in our dreams. We can’t wait to continue to serve you as a leading club management software solution and we hope we get the chance to host you at our facility someday!
