Sports court cleaning

Whether it’s for weekend pickleball, neighborhood pickup games, or organized athletics, a clean court plays better…and safer. Over time, outdoor sports surfaces accumulate moss, algae, dirt, and grime that affect traction, fade court markings, and reduce playability. We clean tennis, basketball, pickleball, and multi-sport courts with equipment and techniques that lift buildup without damaging textured coatings or surfacing materials.

At Snohomish Pressure Washing, we know how to clean without harming your court’s finish or reducing its lifespan. We use surface-safe pressure, specialty nozzles, and careful attention to drainage and edging, restoring both performance and appearance.

Bigfoot-tough cleaning. Small town service.

Why clean your sports court?

It’s not just about looks — buildup on sports surfaces affects play quality and increases injury risk. Routine cleaning keeps things safe and functional.

Improve safety and traction
Organic buildup makes surfaces slick, especially in corners or shaded areas. Cleaning helps prevent slips and falls during play.

Protect court surfacing and coatings
Moss and algae trap moisture and break down the finish. Cleaning extends the life of your court’s paint, texture, and base material.

Restore visual clarity and function
Faded lines and discoloration can confuse players and reduce court visibility. Cleaning brings color and markings back to life.

Risks of not cleaning your sports court

Courts don’t yell for help, they just get slippery, dull, and uneven over time. Ignoring surface buildup doesn’t just make the game worse, it puts players and your investment at risk.

  • Slippery buildup increases the risk of falls and injuries
  • Organic matter can break down surfacing and cause premature wear
  • Faded lines make courts harder to use or mark for multiple sports
  • Uncleaned areas may stain or become permanently discolored

Residential services

Many homes, HOAs, and private communities have backyard or shared-use courts, and they require regular care just like any other surface.

We clean residential tennis, basketball, and pickleball courts with pressure and techniques designed to preserve surface texture and line visibility. Whether you’re prepping for summer play or cleaning up after a wet winter, we’ll help you get your court back in shape and ready to use again.

Commercial & municipal services

We provide sports court cleaning for schools, parks departments, private clubs, and commercial facilities. That includes tennis courts, basketball courts, multi-use courts, and newer pickleball surfaces.

Our surface-safe process removes grime, moss, and slippery buildup without damaging painted lines or specialty coatings. We’re happy to coordinate off-hours cleaning or schedule during non-peak times to avoid disruption.

Frequently asked questions

We clean outdoor tennis, basketball, and pickleball courts, as well as multi-use and shared recreational surfaces. Whether your court is concrete, asphalt, or sport tile with a specialty coating, we adapt our equipment and methods to match the surface type and condition.
Yes, when it’s done right. We use surface-safe pressure settings and specialty nozzles to avoid damaging paint, texture, or surface coatings. High-pressure washing can cause harm if misused, which is why we carefully assess each court and apply the correct method.
No. Our process is designed to clean thoroughly without wearing down court markings. We use the right balance of pressure and technique to lift grime and organic buildup while preserving line paint, striping, and logos.
Absolutely. Moss and algae are common problems on courts, especially in shaded areas. We use a combination of gentle pressure and eco-safe cleaning solutions (when needed) to break down and remove buildup while keeping the court’s surface intact.
We recommend professional cleaning at least once a year. In shaded, tree-heavy, or high-traffic areas, twice per year may be ideal. Regular cleaning helps maintain traction, protect surfacing, and extend the lifespan of your court.
Only when necessary. For organic buildup like moss or algae, we may apply a biodegradable, surface-safe cleaner. These are carefully chosen not to harm coatings, runoff areas, or nearby plants. We always rinse thoroughly and never over-apply.
Once the surface is dry, it’s safe to use again — usually within a few hours. We’ll let you know if any spot treatments were used that require extra drying time, but in most cases, courts are ready for play the same day.
