Maintenance - Domo Smashcourt

The maintenance of a Domo^® Smashcourt^® artificial clay tennis court is considerably lower in comparison to a classic clay court. A classic clay court requires a high frequency of maintenance. In addition to yearly tennis clay court maintenance, there are also more frequent maintenance tasks that need to be carried out monthly and sometimes even weekly: regular water irrigation and replenishing and levelling of the sand. Such maintenance tasks cost time, manpower and money.

When having a Domo^® Smashcourt^®, water irrigation becomes superfluous and the frequency of sanding and levelling is considerably reduced. Domo^® Smashcourt^® limits the general maintenance burden to smaller tasks such as the regular removal of branches and other waste, and weekly checks for unevenness. In this way, the Domo^® Smashcourt^® artificial clay court maintenance becomes simple to execute and inexpensive for the club, without any loss of playing quality.

Changing weather conditions and intensive use of your Domo^® Smashcourt^® outdoor tennis court affect the condition of your playing surface. So you need to clean it to keep it in top condition at all times. First and foremost, as a club or association, you must ensure that your Domo^® Smashcourt^® is used correctly. This means:

• Access the tennis court solely with clean sports shoes that are specially designed for clay court surfaces or omnicourts
• Prohibit the use of chewing gum on and around the tennis playing field
• Avoid placing heavy or pointed objects on the tennis court surface
• Make sure not to play on a damaged surface

Second, it is advisable to keep your tennis court clean from dirt residues. Here are some simple activities to keep the playing surface clean and tidy at all times:

• Remove dirt and leaves from the tennis court to avoid water permeability problems
• Remove surrounding weeds on and around the surface. We recommend doing this by hand

It is necessary to perform specialised maintenance on your Domo^® Smashcourt^® twice a year. These are more extensive maintenance tasks for which we recommend hiring a professional.
