Pickleball has been making news since the 1970s, but in recent years it’s been in the headlines for being the fastest growing sport in America. As a relatively easy, low-impact sport, pickleball appeals to all age groups.
For sports clubs and municipalities, installing a pickleball court can increase member engagement and community involvement, attract new members or residents, enhance revenue opportunities, and promote active lifestyles. If you already have tennis courts, they can be restriped for pickleball, which would reduce your cost but still meet the needs of your clients or community.
Whether you’re looking to upgrade your current facilities or build a new one, a pickleball court is a great investment. Contact us today to explore your options for designing and building a custom court.

In 2021, Munson, Inc. installed two public pickleball courts under the I-794 Freeway in Milwaukee. Located across from the famous Milwaukee Public Market between Downtown and Historic Third Ward districts, Riverwalk Commons continues to transform, thanks to the “Brighten the Passage” revitalization initiative. The Riverwalk Commons has become a hub for outdoor events in Milwaukee, and the pickleball courts draw countless pickleballers during the warm weather months. You can read about the courts’ opening in the Milwaukee Record and watch this segment from TMJ4 News to learn more about pickleball and to see the courts in use.

Next, they’ll walk through special concerns for your pickleball court, such as retaining walls, drainage problems, wind factors, lighting, and noise mitigation.
Then, your Munson representative will put together a design package for your court, including working drawings.
When it’s time to start construction of your pickleball court, Munson will custom-build it from the ground up according to your design package. By excavating, paving, fencing, and finishing ourselves, Muson controls quality and oversees the project from start to finish so you only have to work with one contractor.

The cost to install a pickleball court depends on factors like surface materials, number of courts, and location. For an accurate estimate based on your project, contact us for a free consultation and estimate.
The timeline for installing a pickleball court depends on factors like the size of the project, weather conditions, site preparation, and the materials used. On average, it can take anywhere from 6 to 8 weeks to complete a standard pickleball court installation, including time for curing if you're using asphalt or concrete. Custom features, like PICKLEGLASS™ sound-proofing wall systems or additional amenities, may extend the timeline slightly.
To get a more accurate estimate based on your project specifics, please contact us for a personalized installation timeline and estimate.
Pickleball ball and paddle materials make playing the sport louder than tennis, which can disturb neighboring residents and businesses. Pickleball players can purchase quieter equipment to help mitigate the noise they make while playing. If you are planning to install a pickleball court, consider locating the court away from homes and businesses to prevent noise disturbances. If that is not an option, Munson is proud to offer PICKLEGLASS™ sound-proofing wall systems as an alternative. These made-in-the-USA systems boast 50% sound suppression, greatly reducing pickleball noise for sound-sensitive areas.
Yes, converting a tennis court into one or more pickleball courts is a cost-effective and efficient option. Since pickleball courts are smaller, a standard tennis court can be easily adapted permanently or for dual use.
Converting an existing tennis court reduces construction costs and time, while providing a popular new option for players. Contact us today to discuss your court conversion project and get a free estimate.
According to USA Pickleball, a pickleball court is 44 feet by 20 feet. Net height is 36” at the sideline, 34” at center. Click here to download their court diagram.
Pickleball courts require color coating and striping every 5 to 7 years to maintain their appearance and ensure proper playing conditions, though the exact timing can vary depending on the level of usage, exposure to weather, and the quality of the initial installation. High-traffic courts or those exposed to harsh weather may need resurfacing sooner.
We recommend winterizing pickleball courts in the late fall to prevent moisture from being trapped on the surface, which can cause premature failure of the color coating. For a list of tips, read our blog Late Fall Maintenance for Outdoor Tennis and Pickleball Courts.
Regular maintenance can extend the life of your court, so we recommend periodic inspections to assess wear and tear. If you're unsure about the condition of your court, contact us to schedule an inspection or resurfacing service.
Pickleball is a combination of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. Played on a smaller court than tennis and with a perforated ball, it’s a lower-intensity sport.
