Pressure washing

• Pressure cleaning tennis courts is necessary to remove loose dirt, debris, mildew ect….

• Ideally at least every 2 years court surface’s benefit from a vigorous power wash. This will keep the surface clean and free-draining, but is also essential for maintaining good grip in order to prevent slipping and possible injury.

• Courts near busy roads are particularly susceptible to becoming coated with “traffic film”, while those near trees may become coated with “honey-dew” from aphids. The resulting black film from either cause can make the courts very slippery after rain.

• Ideally cleaning should be carried out in autumn or early spring, thus ensuring the courts are ready for use for the beginning of the main playing season.

• Pressure washing can be undertaken under most conditions including rain.
