Care, maintenance & repairs

This is the shortest guide on the site, because the honest answer is: there isn't much to do. No resurfacing schedule, no repainting, no sealing. Here's the whole routine.

Routine care

• ✓Sweep or blow off leaves and grit whenever they build up — grit underfoot is the main thing worth staying ahead of
• ✓Hose or pressure-wash a few times a year, or after muddy weather
• ✓For marks or spills, warm water and a little mild detergent lifts almost everything

What to avoid

• ✓Solvents and harsh chemicals — they're never needed and can dull the surface
• ✓Abrasive scourers or wire brushes — same reason
• ✓Painting your own lines on — markings are made into the tile at the factory; paint will wear and look patchy next to them

If a tile is ever damaged

This is the part owners of acrylic courts envy: you pop the damaged tile out and click a replacement in. No specialist, no resurfacing, no court closed for a week. Email [email protected] with your order number and the colour, and we'll get a replacement to you.

Once-a-year checklist

1. 1
   Deep clean

   Pressure-wash the surface and let the water run through — it clears anything sitting under the lattice.

2. 2
   Walk the perimeter

   Check edge and corner ramps are seated; press any that have been kicked loose back in.

3. 3
   Check the anchors

   Pop a couple of centre caps and confirm the anchors are snug.

4. 4
   Trim back growth

   Keep grass and garden edges off the court perimeter so drainage stays clear.
