Custom Tennis Practice Wall Build — Designed and Built by PPS

When this homeowner approached us, they had a clear vision:
A private tennis practice wall that blended into the existing court, looked beautiful, and performed like a professional training facility.

Our team engineered, built, and finished a wall that exceeded expectations — built for years of fast-paced, high-impact play.


The Design & Engineering

The project began with careful structural planning.
Key design details included:

  • 20 ft. wide × 12.5 ft. tall practice wall surface

  • Strong vertical framing supported by 6×6 pressure-treated posts

  • 42" deep concrete footings at each post to exceed frost line requirements

  • 16" × 8" reinforced concrete piers per post for long-term stability

  • Angled 2×8 structural braces set at a 10° angle to transfer ball impact energy into the ground

  • Built-in clearance and grading to ensure proper drainage and no contact with soil wicking

This build was designed for athletic performance, not just backyard appearance.


Construction Process

Once layout was pinned and excavation complete:

  • All 6×6 posts were plumb-set in structural concrete

  • Reinforced framing was installed to create a perfectly flat, true rebound plane

  • Smooth exterior-grade panels were fastened with weather-rated structural screws

  • Angled braces installed for lateral and impact stability

  • Final grade adjustments ensured clean finish lines and surface integrity

Every component was constructed for strength, durability, and repeat performance.


Finishing & Court Integration

After structural completion, we handled finishing:

  • Oil-based exterior primer for deep penetration and moisture resistance

  • Exterior-grade satin finish for a durable, professional appearance

  • Multiple finish coats for long-term UV protection

  • A crisp white practice line aligned for accurate stroke development

  • Trim work for a fully finished look from all angles

A professional athletic surface — not just a painted wall.


The Result: A Premium Practice Experience

The finished rebound wall provides:

  • Excellent solo training for tennis and pickleball

  • Quiet, consistent ball response — similar to club-level facilities

  • Year-round usage with weather-resistant materials

  • A striking aesthetic upgrade to the court area

Built for the homeowner who takes their improvement seriously.
