Houston’s Trusted Sport Court Builders for Pickleball, Basketball & More
At Lone Star Court Builders, we make it simple with transparent pricing, honest communication, and proven craftsmanship from an experienced local team. While others rely on flashy credentials and national branding, our courts are built by seasoned installers who know Texas conditions firsthand. Your court won’t just look good on day one. It will be built to last for years to come!
The Problem With Most Court Builders
When you’re researching sports court builders in Houston, the options can feel overwhelming. One contractor talks pricing, another talks materials, and nobody gives a clear picture of what you’ll actually receive. Many companies look transparent on the front end, but real problems often appear during and after installation. Puddling, peeling coatings, and poor drainage can surface once the work begins and the court is put to use.
Built for Houston. Built to Last.
Whether you’re dreaming of a backyard pickleball court in Houston, planning basketball court construction, or designing a custom multi-sport court, you deserve a builder who is transparent, reliable, and committed to quality. We specialize in outdoor sport court installation built specifically for Houston’s heat, humidity, and unpredictable weather, so your family can spend less time worrying about the court and more time making memories on it for years to come.

The Challenge
-
Promise vs Reality
When homeowners start reaching out to contractors, they quickly realize how inconsistent the industry can be. Most builders look great on paper with detailed proposals and polished presentations. But the real test comes during implementation - and that's where many homeowners end up facing costly mistakes or even needing to redo their court entirely.
-
Confusion, Delays and Hidden Cost
One quote seems too cheap to be true, another is sky-high, and nobody clearly explains what's included. Select the wrong builder, and you don't just lose money; you also lose peace of mind. Delays and hidden fees can turn your dream into a source of stress that lasts for years. Even companies that look great on paper can fall short when it comes to drainage, coatings, or proper installation - leaving homeowners with costly problems down the road.
-
Challenges
- Confusing, inconsistent pricing, and unclear estimates
- Hidden fees or shifting project costs
- Poor communication and unreliable timelines
- Poor materials and missed installation steps lead to early wear and repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a backyard sport court?
Most projects take about six weeks from breaking ground to final coating, but timing depends on concrete cure time and weather conditions.
- Concrete Prep and Pour: 3 days
- Cure Time: 30 days, nets
- Coating and Striping: 4-5 days
We’ll keep you fully informed at every step so there are no surprises.
What affects the cost of a backyard pickleball or basketball court?
Your total investment depends on:
- Court size
- Chosen surface system (Colored Concrete, Standard Sport Surface, Pro-Grade Tournament Sport Surface, Cushion)
- Add-ons like lighting, fencing, and basketball goals
- Site prep needs, drainage, and access
- HOA or permitting requirements
We provide a clear, detailed estimate upfront with no hidden fees — ever.
Do I need a plat or easement before getting my estimate?
No. You don’t need any documents before reaching out.
We’ll guide you through plats, easements, and HOA requirements once we understand your space.
That way, planning doesn’t slow you down or keep you out of the funnel.
Will weather delay my project?
Sometimes — especially in winter months.
Coatings require dry weather and temperatures above 50°, and we won’t risk installing a surface that won’t last.
What we can promise:
- Transparent communication
- Competent planning
- Realistic timelines
- No guessing about when your project will move forward
Do you offer financing?
Many homeowners enjoy flexible monthly payments while getting their court built now instead of waiting.
What surface system should I choose?
It depends on the experience you want:
Colored Concrete — simplest, budget-friendly
Duracourt System — durable, great traction, excellent all-around option
Sport-Master 7-Layer — tournament-grade bounce and performance
Cushion Court — premium comfort and professional feel.
We’ll help you choose the right option based on how your family plays and the performance you want.
Do you build multi-sport courts?
Absolutely. Many families choose a mix of pickleball, basketball, volleyball, and more.
We’ll help design lines, colors, and layouts that fit your space without making it feel crowded.
Can you build on uneven or sloped ground?
Yes. Most Houston properties require grading before installation.
We handle:
- Leveling
- Compaction
- Drainage improvements
- Proper slope to avoid puddling
This is where many builders cut corners — but it’s also where long-term durability begins.
Do you help with court design and colors?
What makes Lone Star different from other court builders?

Clear communication, so you always know what’s happening and when.
Many companies look polished on the front end.

What if I already got a quote from another builder?
We’re happy to take a look.
Many homeowners come to us after receiving quotes that look detailed but leave out critical steps like drainage, coatings, curing windows, or surface prep.
We’ll help you compare apples to apples and make a smart investment.
How long will my court last?
With proper installation and materials chosen for Houston conditions, your court can perform beautifully for 10–20+ years before resurfacing is needed.
The key is correct installation and surface prep, which we take extremely seriously.
